Why Abram Failed in Egypt & God Restored Him | Genesis 12-14

B4L4 Join Les Feldick for a verse-by-verse Bible study on Genesis 12-14, exploring Abram's journey to Egypt and the consequences of his choices. Discover what the Bible teaches about separation from the world and how God restores us even when our faith falters. In this lesson, Les Feldick walks through Genesis 12, 13, and 14, unpacking the significance of Abram's call, his deceptive detour into Egypt, and his eventual separation from Lot. You'll learn why "Egypt" symbolizes the world in Scripture and see how Lot's choice to pitch his tent toward Sodom serves as a warning for believers today. Les also introduces the mysterious figure of Melchizedek and explains the difference between Old Testament material promises and New Testament spiritual blessings. This teaching offers a clear, practical understanding of how these ancient narratives apply to our walk of faith. 00:00 – Introduction & Program Overview 00:14 – Introduction to Genesis 12: The Journey to Canaan 00:54 – Abram’s Departure from Haran (Genesis 12:4-5) 01:50 – The Canaanites in the Land (Genesis 12:6) 02:56 – God’s Appearance and Abram’s Altar (Genesis 12:7-8) 03:20 – Visual Aid: Mapping Abram’s Journey 04:43 – Abram’s Journey to Egypt: Symbolism of Egypt (Genesis 12:9-10) 05:29 – The Humanity of Biblical Characters 06:53 – Abram’s Deception in Egypt (Genesis 12:11-20) 11:37 – Consequences of Abram’s Actions 12:20 – Distinction Between Old and New Testament Promises 13:23 – Abram’s Return to Canaan, Separation from Lot (Genesis 13:1-9) 15:47 – Lot’s Worldly Choice (Genesis 13:10-12) 17:05 – God’s Renewed Promise to Abram & Abram’s Deeds (Genesis 13:14-18) 19:10 – Introduction of Melchizedek (Genesis 14:17-20) 20:30 – Closing Remarks & Contact Information If you enjoyed this Bible study, please like, comment, and subscribe for more teachings from Les Feldick.
