Description: Stephen's defense before the Sanhedrin uses Abraham's story to dismantle the court's temple-centered, ethnocentric view of God, showing that God's glory and promises were never confined to the land or the temple but are global; and that believers today must trust God's unbreakable, solemn promises even though their fulfillment lies in the future, not the present.
