Scripture – Genesis 12:6-9; 13:1-4, 18

12:6Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh at Shechem. At that time the Canaanites were in the land.

12:7The LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring I will give this land. So he built an altar there to the LORD, who had appeared to him.

12:8From there he went on toward the hills east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to the LORD and called on the name of the LORD.

12:9Then Abram set out and continued toward the Negev.

13:1So Abram went up from Egypt to the Negev, with his wife and everything he had, and Lot went with him.

13:2Abram had become very wealthy in livestock and in silver and gold.

13:3From the Negev he went from place to place until he came to Bethel, to the place between Bethel and Ai where his tent had been earlier

13:4and where he had first built an altar. There Abram called on the name of the LORD.

13:18So Abram moved his tents and went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to the LORD.

2 Corinthians

24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
