Israel from Calling to Conquest

From the very moment Adam and Eve rebelled against God's boundaries in the Garden of Eden, God's primary focus is on a plan of redemption. God desires a people through whom he can work to produce a reflection of himself, and through whom he can spread the message of his redemptive plan through the world. The redemptive strategy all starts on the River Euphrates, in a town called Ur.One day a man by the name of Abram gets a tap on the shoulder and he hears a voice that basically says, "Hey, I need you...it's time to peace out of Ur." And with that the Patriarch era begins. There are four main Patriarchs we're introduced to in Genesis 12 to the end.
