In the passage, Abraham the “man of faith” comes into contact with an outsider—an unbeliever—Abimelech, king of Gerar. Abraham’s behavior toward this outsider causes a serious problem. This story posts a particularly challenging lesson for Christians: since Jesus Christ is the Savior of all kinds of people from all over the world, Christians must live out their faith in a way that helps, not hurts, those outsiders to see what a great God we have.
