Start Over Creator Balentine, Sam E. (Samuel Eugene)

1. SEBTS Chapel - Samuel Eugene Balentine January 26, 1989

Description:
Dr. Samuel Eugene Balentine was Associate Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at SEBTS. A hymn begins the service (0:00-5:11). The congregation sings a hymn (5:12-8:27). The Scripture reading comes from Genesis 22:1-14 and 1 Corinthians 10:13 (8:28-11:37). A word of prayer is given (11:38-12:55). Dr. Samuel Balentine begins with a recount of the story of God testing Abraham on Mt. Moriah (12:26-19:07). Mt. Moriah became the place where God tested and provided (19:08-20:12). Dr. Balentine asks whether we are prepared to encounter the same God who tests and provides (20:13-21:27). Abraham realized that the God, who tests all, also provides for all (21:28-25:11). Jesus demonstrated faith on the Cross at Golgotha (25:12-26:04). Dr. Balentine speaks about how we are “summoned to Mt. Moriah” like Abraham; we are expected to sacrifice everything and have faith in God (26:05:27:34). He concludes with Paul’s words regarding God: He is faithful and helps us to endure our tests (27:35-28:10). A word of prayer is given (28:11-28:35). A hymn ends the service (28:36-31:11).
