Bible: Rom. 2:28-29; 7:18-25; 12:1-2

2:28 For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision something that is outward in the flesh, 2:29 but someone is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart 1  by the Spirit 2  and not by the written code. 3  This person’s 4  praise is not from people but from God.

7:18 The waters completely overwhelmed 1  the earth, and the ark floated 2  on the surface of the waters.

The Obedience of Abram

12:1 Now the Lord said 1  to Abram, 2 

“Go out 3  from your country, your relatives, and your father’s household

to the land that I will show you. 4 

12:2 Then I will make you 5  into a great nation, and I will bless you, 6 

and I will make your name great, 7 

so that you will exemplify divine blessing. 8
