Any ideas for this objective?
8. Be able to differentiate between the faith in God exhibited by Abraham and trusting in that which is based on personal knowledge or experience only.

Bill - FWIW, here's my answer for this one:
• Abram’s faith was not based on what he had seen
• In fact he had seen nothing to indicate God was going to fulfill his promises
So his faith was not based in experience.
The question is worded weirdly, in that it contains the answer in the question.

Hope this helps.
