God made several promises to Abraham, often referred to as the Abrahamic Covenant. These promises are found in Genesis 12, 15, and 17. Here are the key promises: A Great Nation – God promised to make Abraham's descendants into a great nation. Genesis 12:2: “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.” The Land of Canaan – God promised Abraham and his descendants the land of Canaan. Genesis 13:15: “All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever.” Blessing to All Nations – Through Abraham, all the families of the earth would be blessed (a prophecy about Jesus Christ). Genesis 12:3: “All peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” Countless Descendants – Abraham’s offspring would be as numerous as the stars. Genesis 15:5: “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them. So shall your offspring be.” A Covenant Relationship – God promised to be the God of Abraham and his descendants forever. Genesis 17:7: “I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you.” A Son (Isaac) in Old Age – Though Sarah was barren, God promised Abraham a son. Genesis 17:19: “Your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant.” These promises were fulfilled in different ways: Israel became a great nation. The land of Canaan was given to Israel. Jesus Christ, a descendant of Abraham, brought salvation to all nations.

Der fünfte Geburtstag und das Missgeschick An Namas fünftem Geburtstag, einem besonderen Tag, an dem er traditionell seine erste blaue Hose tragen sollte, geschieht ein Unglück. Frau Tina schickt Nama mit Seidenflocken los, um Geld für den Hosenstoff zu verdienen. Doch er trifft auf seine Tante Frau Schumer, die in einer vornehmen Sänfte sitzt. Als Nama ihr die Seide anbietet, beschuldigt sie ihn des Bettelns, reißt das Paket auf und wirft die kostbaren Seidenflocken in den Abgrund. Ohne das Geld kann Frau Tina keine Hose kaufen, und Nama ist verzweifelt, weil er seinen Kinderrock nicht ablegen kann. Das Geschenk des Zauberers Am Geburtstag läuft Nama traurig auf die Felder, wo er einem hungrigen Bettler begegnet. Trotz ihrer eigenen Not lädt er ihn nach Hause ein. Der Bettler entpuppt sich als Zauberer und schenkt Nama eine magische Mühle, die Wünsche erfüllt, wenn man sie dreht. Er lehrt Nama ein geheimes Zeichen, um sie zu stoppen. Nama wünscht sich eine blaue Hose und eine Jacke aus Seide, und die Mühle erfüllt seinen Wunsch. Später wünscht er sich auch die verlorenen Seidenflocken zurück, die daraufhin ins Haus zurückkehren. Frau Schumers Gier Frau Schumer erfährt von der Mühle und nimmt sie Nama gewaltsam weg. In ihrer Gier wünscht sie sich unablässig Gold, vergisst jedoch das Zeichen, um die Mühle zu stoppen. Das Gold häuft sich an, bis es sie erdrückt und sie stirbt. Nama findet die Mühle inmitten des Goldberges und entscheidet, das Gold nicht für sich zu behalten, sondern es den Armen zu geben, um ein guter Mensch zu werden, wie der Zauberer es ihm geraten hat. Namas Vermächtnis Die Geschichte endet damit, dass Nama sein Versprechen hält. Er wird ein weiser und gütiger Mensch, der den Bedürftigen hilft. Sein Vorbild prägt die Menschen, und Eltern wünschen ihren Kindern, so weise und gut wie Nama zu werden.

Once upon a time, two friends named Alex and Poppy were playing on a sunny beach. They built massive sandcastles and splashed in the warm waves, laughing and having fun. Suddenly, the sky began to darken. The sun hid behind thick clouds, and a strange hush fell over the beach. The seagulls who were as loud as exploding fireworks, suddenly went quiet and flew away in the opposite direction of the ocean. "What’s happening?" asked Poppy, looking nervously at Alex. Just then, a gigantic wave crashed onto the shore. From the frothy water, a frightening figure emerged—a sea witch! She rose high above the waves, her long hair flowing like seaweed, and her eyes glimmered with mischief. The sea witch raised her sparkling triton and pointed it straight at the two friends. Before they could run, a magical pull tugged at them, and they were swept under the water! In the blink of an eye, Alex and Poppy found themselves in the sea witch’s shimmering underwater cave, surrounded by glittering treasures and colourful fish. The sea witch smiled wickedly. “You will help me find my lost crown, or you must stay here forever!” The sea witch became distracted by a family of lost turtles, trying to enter her underwater cave. Alex looked at Poppy, his heart racing. “We need to get out of here!” With a nod of agreement, they started to tip-toe behind the mountains of treasure in the sea witch’s cave. Suddenly, they spotted a golden starfish that shimmered brightly—it looked magical! “Let’s grab it!” shouted Poppy, reaching out. As they grasped the starfish together, a brilliant light filled the cave! With a bright flash, the starfish granted them one wish. The friends looked at each other, grinned, and shouted together, “Take us back home!” In an instant, they found themselves back on the sandy beach, the sun shining down once more. They cheered and hugged each other. “Where have you been?” Alex’s mum asked. “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you!” Alex laughed.

Once upon a time in the ocean, there was a little fish named Finley who had just moved to a new school of fish. Finley was nervous because he didn't look like the other fish in his new school. His scales were a different color and he was missing a fin. Finley tried his best to fit in with the other fish, but no matter what he did, he felt like he didn't belong. One day, Finley decided to explore the ocean and see if there were other schools of fish that he’d feel like he fit in. He swam through the coral reef and met a school of brightly colored fish. They were intrigued by Finley's missing fin and asked him to swim with them for the day. But Finley realized that he couldn’t keep up with the bright colored fish, they were too fast! He didn’t like that he felt left behind. Next, Finley met a school of fish that were all the same color as him. But they were very serious and didn't like to have fun. Finley found out a new thing about himself that day when he couldn’t make any of them laugh with his jokes. Making his friends laugh makes him smile, so he didn’t think this school was right for him. Finally, Finley met a school of fish that were all different colors and sizes. They welcomed Finley with open fins and showed him all the fun things they liked to do. Finley realized that he didn't have to be like everyone else to fit in. He just needed to find the right school of fish who would accept him for who he was. From that day on, Finley swam with his new friends and had the best time of his life. He realized that being different was something to be proud of and that he had a special place in the ocean, just like everyone else. The end.

It's a test story where a kid goes on an adventure

Dostal si sa až sem, takže to asi myslíš vážne. A asi sa pýtaš, prečo som tento album nazval nový človek. Je to preto, že si myslím, že je to to najdôležitejšie, čo sa momentálne deje. Žijeme v zaujímavých časoch, blíži sa veľká zmena, rodí sa nové vedomie. Každý sa musí premeniť z larvy na motýľa. Príbeh je o človeku menom Nový, ktorý žije v mestečku Starý svet, kde je všetko hore nohami. Lekár, ktorý sa bojí byť zbytočný, otrávil celé mesto a teraz sú na ňom všetci závislí. Starosta, bojí sa smrti, zneužíva svoj vplyv a riadi všetko ako bábkové divadlo. Šerif zneužíva svoju moc, aby si zabezpečil svoje. V kostole sa smutné tváre modlia k Bohu, ale o živote na zemi vedia málo. V škole učia, že dva plus dva je päť, a deti prichádzajú o rozum. Rádio hrá stále tú istú smutnú pesničku. Nový sa jedného dňa prebudil a uvedomil si, že sem nepatrí. Rozhodol sa odísť, nevediac kam, ale nechce hrať toto staré divadlo. Príbeh pokračuje, a ty, nový človek, rozhodneš, kam pôjde.
