Description
Throughout the Old Testament, God reluctantly punishes sinners. But He manages to find one good man who will carry on and set an example for the rest of humanity. Abraham was such a man. And he is the central character in the powerful story of Sodom and Gomorrah.
As the story opens, Abraham (or Abram as he is initially called) is a mere teenager. But as he grows into manhood, it becomes clear that God has important plans for him. "You are a righteous man," God says. "Therefore I will make your descendants into a great nation. Go, therefore, to the land I will show you."
In the course of their journeys, Abraham and his wife, Sarah experience many difficulties. They witness the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and in the process learn an important lesson about God's wrath. Many years later, Abraham faces the greatest test of all. He must make a choice between his love for God and his love for his only son.
The story ends happily, of course. But in the process, it conveys an important message about the power of faith.
