We are to live by faith.
We are to die in faith.
We are to look beyond death to the generation to come.
A. ABRAHAM: DEATH IS NOT THE END
1. Abraham is a man of faith [11.8-10]

3. Abraham believed God’s promise in the presence of death [18-19]
B. BELIEVING PARENTS: MORE IS YET TO COME

2. The promise is passed on in faith
C. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT?

2. We can expect God to still convert women like Rahab [31]
