Acts7:4

Abraham had as great a love to his kindred and native Countrey, as others have; but he had a greater faith, which made him yield to Gods call and command, and follow from place to place the will of God, who is said here to have removed Abraham, and does chuse the Inheritance and habitation for his people, Psal. 47.4.
