Stephen replied, “Brothers and fathers, listen to me! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham while he was still living near the Euphrates River, before he moved to Harran.
The Son is the brilliance of God’s glory and the exact likeness of God’s being. He holds everything together by his powerful word. Once he had provided the way for people to be made pure from sin, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
The Word became human and made his home with us. We have seen his glory the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
“You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, because you created all things, and by your will they were created and came into existence.”
I keep asking the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, to give you the wisdom and understanding that come from the Holy Spirit. That way you will get to know God better.
By faith Abraham obeyed God and went to the place he would later receive as his own. He did that even though he didn’t know where he was going when God told him to start on his way there.
