Genesis Chapter 12

In this chapter we find a true follower of God out of all of those that where chased away from Babel.

12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country,
and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land
that I will shew thee:

12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee,
and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that
curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be
blessed.

12:7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will
I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD,
who appeared unto him.

Even though God isn't speaking a great deal in this chapter there is a great story of Abram lying to Pharoah and and saying that Sarai was his sister instead of his wife. And who said the Bible doesn't have stories of intrique and romance.
