The seventeenth-century Puritan preacher Thomas Fuller said that all mankind was divided into three classes: the intenders, the endeavorers, and the performers. Terah may have been an intender, but he never made it into the Land of Promise. Lot was an endeavorer up to a point, but he failed miserably because he could not walk by faith. Abraham and Sarah were the performers because they trusted God to perform what He promised (Rom. 4:18-21). They committed their lives and futures to God, obeyed what He commanded, and received all that God planned for them.
