Abraham Also Was Once An Idol Worshipper by Odiriance4all(m): 10:38am On Jul 24, 2020
worshiping God is not only the religion of Abraham and his descendants ( which are the Israelites ) only
God initial plan when the first man (Adam $ eve) was created was for mankind to be close to God and worship him only but Adam and eve erred and follows the way of the devil which was the beginning of human woes, from then on the descendant of Adams started to worship the devil, humans started spreading everywhere on earth and started worshiping idols.
However, God being a merciful God still had love for man which he created , he still wanted every man close and worship him only, he didn't want man to worship some man made idols because it only bring destruction to mankind so he chooses Abraham to carry out the plan, that through Abraham the whole world will one day come back to him.
Abraham was from Babylon now modern day Iraqi, that is the Israelites are descendants of some Babylonians who left the way of their ancestors ( the Babylonia's) to worship the true God of Creator. when Abraham ancestor find out that out he was no longer following their ways like worshiping their idols he was driven away from their land, so he went and settled in a land called mesipotamia later on God ask him to go to the land of Canaan to settle, there in the land of Canaan Abraham prospered, flourished and have many descendants which are the Israelites, a famine came and the move to the land of Egypt but God was still with them and later on took them back to their land , the land of Canaan
So stop saying God is only the God of Abraham or Israelites or the European, he only first came to Abraham then to the Israelites, and then to the rest of the world because Abraham too was once an idol worshipper like you before been called to God, same as the Jews, Europeans, Asians , Arabs and we Africans. God is the God of all

The Bible, read your Bible from the beginning

I did not see it... First and foremost, the Bible is NOT a history text book. It is a spiritual manual.. Read it and learn the spiritual message in it.
Adam means man and Eve means woman. The story is just a recast of an earlier Babylonian epic about how man forfeited the chance to live indefinitely on earth. Or how death came to be...

you don't read the Bible only to be spiritually filled, the Bible was also written to let us know the history of mankind, the beginning of creation, the events that happened to those who follows God and how we can learn from those event, not only us but to be able to defend when doubters, theorists and false teachers like you comes on our ways. to be able to know the truth

HIS FATHER NOT ABRAHAM.

The whole world was in confusion after the death of Noah's family, Nimrod turned himself to their King and wanted all of them to remain under his domain, that's why he initiated the tower of Babel!

So God picked Abraham out from amongst those people because he is faithful and loyal. Back then there were people who still wants to know the God Noah worshiped while the rest just feel like worshiping the popular way as in following the trend.
Demonic spirits were everywhere influencing the choices people are making regarding worship.

That's why God picked Abraham in other to make himself known to this faithful man! smiley

You need to know why he must be called by that name forever and ever! Exodus 3:15

You can't worship him acceptably without first connecting through that chosen lineage.
Note how this God accepted Abel's worship and ignored that of Cain, Abraham had 8 sons yet God chose just one (Isaac) out of the 8, note also that Isaac also had a twin yet God chose Jacob not both!

So what you need to ask is why did he continue to select instead of accepting the worship of all? smiley
