svItere he dwelt, Haran, wile not eulted
'es the purpose that God had in mind,
neuee he told Abram to move forward.
"Abram was to leave hie native einuitry,
the fertile land where his fathers had
dwelt for centuriee, with ite aud
cleilization, the mountains and noble
rivers of hie childhood; hie kindred, the
etock Eber, whom he left in Clialilea;
his fatherta house, the family of Torah,
whom he left in, Hama, breaking the
closest earthly ties; and he was to go
forth, he knew not whither, unto a land
that God should. show him (Heb. 11,8)."
-Wheelon. Abram was seventy-five years
oid at this time.
IL Bleesings promleed (vs. 2, 3). 2.
1 will make of thee a great nation -The
name Abram means "exalted father,"
and was later changed to Abraham,
which means "father of a multitude."
The promise here given is eeveral times
repeated to Abram and to hie descend -
ante, and was literally fulfilled. The
promiee to him was comprehensive, and
God would. see to it that seeming dif-
ficulties in the way should be renioved,
Though he was childless and was to be
torn, from his kindred and placed th a
strange land; what God had promised
WoUld Come to pass. In this promiee
eeven distinct blessings are included,und
a sevenfold blessing is all-inclueiee, since
iss a member deV.otingeperleetiete -
I Will -bless thee --No earthly good can
be eo great ae the blessing of God.
Others are eingle, individual good things,
bin he that has God's bleseieg has +lie
source of all good; not a cupful from the
river of life, but the river itself with
ite ceaseless flow. God himself is the
best of all good gifts to man.-Peloubet.
Make thy name great -s -It wits a great
sacrifice that Abram was called upon to
make, but it would not be without its
compensations. His name would be
great, even though he should break
away from his kindred and country and
go into a Strange land. He who called
him out was greater than all of earthbj
greatness. Thou, Ohalt be a blessing -
"Be thou a bleesing."-R. V. The blese.
ing was not intended to centre in Abram
and end there. He was to be blessed
that he might become a blessing to
other% "He should be famoue, not for
what lie took from men, but for what
he gave to men." Hie devotion, his in-
ttgrity and hie faith would be made a
--bleesing to those who should. meet him.

in his position and mission. He would
be counted God's enemy who was an
enemy to Abram.. "The good man is not
alone; touch inni and you touch God." In
thee shall all familicis of the earth be
bleesed-Thie is the climax of the bless-
ings promised. More excellent than to

ramie, to be blessed and to be a blessing,

PRACTICAL SURVEY,
•
Topic. ---The eall of God.
I. Inspired faith in Abram.
If. Prompted obedience in Abram.
. Inspired faith in Abram. Jehovah
revealed himeelf to Abram as the one
living and true God. it seems plain that
the faintly of Abram, like all the rest
of the world at that time, was Wires
trous. God chose this SOn of idolaters
to become_ a child of grace. He gave him
grandeur of soul and a marvelous ap-
preciation of the true and eternal God.
No reason, no emotion, but faith made
him the man of God, the "friend of
God," Abram's faith triumphed over
exceptional difficulties and enabled him
to do what no other naotive would have
been strong enough to accomplish. His
piety developed into a complete renun-
ciation of his old life. He became a
character of eminent and single -hearted
faithfulness. The purpose of God's call
to Abram was that in him the race
might religiously start anew. He was
from first to last a separated man. God
cut him off from his kindred, that he
might draw hini closer to himself. Abram
could hardly have become a Spiritual
hero that he was in later life, had he
not beeneledeteeweelleethsr Meta icesgetitielse
-eel& Only the unseen One for his shield.
rhe call of Abram was manifestly dt.
vine, It was a distinct command ac-
companied by gracious promises of guid-
ance and renow'n with the assurance of
a peeterity, besides the promise of being
made the souree of the highest blessing
to mankind. 'When God called Abram,
and in him the Jewish nation, he ' crad-
led them in blessing." In this narrative
we get a' glimpse of God's concern for
the ways and welfare of men. This new
dispensation marked the selection of
what became the people of God. Abram
was destined to build up a lasting home.
II. Prompted obedience in Abram. Obe-
dience with Abram was without hesitat
tiou, reservation or limitation. When
he moved his whole eneampment acroes
the Euphrates and turned his face to the
desert, he gave the firet evidence of his
trust in the unseen and eternal One. To
cross the broad, deep,rapid river meant
an irrevocable 'cutting loose from past
life. Oply the man of faith did. that.
It was imperative that he make a de-
cided severatee in the continuity of his
family hietory. Only in this way could
he became a new branch of tbe human
race, the originator of a new epoch.
1Tc was told to go forth alone, to give
up at God's bidding, to found a
nation. His journey to Canaan was
wholly due to a spiritual inspiration, His
obedience to the divine evidencel the
high type of his piety and. was founded
oa faith. He went- where ,God celled
him, and acknowledged hhn at every
stage of his journey. His, firet care was
to build an altar to hie God. Altars
were intended to be ehannels of worship
and memoadals of divine mercies. HiS
action in building an altar amounted
to the taking possession of the land. It
was also an acknowledgment of the
elainis of God upon his people. Abram's
chief thought in Canaan was to bear
testimony that be was the servant of
God. He bore his witness. opetly and
boldly that the Canaanites might not
mietake his faith. He witueseed to the
power and love of God and his provia
(knees in daily life. The first recorded
encaanpment in Canaan is "without sig.
nifieance. Sheller' was the central city
of the land. It was there that God's
protease of the land was made to Abrnm
and his posterity. Though all the land
was his by promise, he,proeured only a
burying -place by purehase. That was an
earliest of all the rest. At the Gide of
idolatroue altars rose Abram's altar.,
dedieated to the God of beaven and
eartli. Abram found ft a joy to be
miter the leaderehip of God, and he
built this altar to express bis gratitude.
