Genesis 22:18

And in your descendants shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because you have obeyed my voice.

Peter Chrysologus

AD 450
God seeks belief from you not death. He thirsts for selfdedication, not blood. He is placated by good will, not by slaughter. God gave proof of this when he asked holy Abraham for his son as a victim. For what else than his own body was Abraham immolating in his son? What else than faith was God requiring in the father, since he ordered the son to be offered but did not allow him to be killed? Sermon
