The Obedience of Faith
In sending out from the press these Studies in the Life of Abraham, I am very sensible of the inadequacy of my attempt to conceive, or protray, one of the greatest characters of history. And yet there is one thought pervading the entire narrative, which brings it near to the poorest limner of its noble outlines. Abraham was great through his faith. And that faith was at first but a silver thread, a tiny streak, an insignificant sinew – not stronger than that which trembles in the humblest and weakest reader of these lines.
But wherever faith is it is the link with Omnipotence; the channel for God’s communications; the wire along which the Fire of Heaven may travel. And as it is used according to the promptings of the Divine Spirit, and in obedience to His commands, it will grow. It grew in Abraham. It will grow in us.
To trace the laws of that growth, and its gradual increase, for the encouragement of those who by faith are the children of Abraham, and who long with intense desire to emulate their great progenitor until they can remove mountains of difficulty and achieve apparent impossibilities, has been the great principle on which these pages have been prepared – F B Meyer (Preface)
