What then will we say that Abraham, our forefather, has found according to the flesh? Isa 51:2Rom 4:162Co 11:22Act 13:26Jhn 8:56Luk 3:8Mat 3:9Rom 7:7 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God. 1Co 1:312Co 11:30Php 3:9Eph 2:9Gal 3:221Co 1:291Co 9:162Co 12:1-9 For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” 1 Gen 15:6Jas 2:23Gal 3:6-8Rom 4:9Rom 4:22-25Rom 4:5Psa 106:31Rom 4:11 Now to him who works, the reward is not counted as grace, but as something owed. Rom 11:6Rom 9:32Rom 11:35Mat 20:1-16 But to him who doesn’t work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness. Php 3:9Rom 3:22Tit 3:3-7Rom 10:9-10Gal 3:8-14Rom 10:3Gal 2:16-171Co 6:9-11 Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works: 2Ti 1:9Eph 2:8-10Php 3:9Gal 3:8-91Co 1:302Co 5:21Isa 45:24-25Rom 3:20-22
“Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, Psa 32:1-2Psa 130:3-4Luk 7:47-50Mic 7:18-20Psa 85:2Isa 40:1-2Psa 51:8-9Jer 33:8-9
whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man whom the Lord will by no means charge with sin.” 2 Psa 32:21Pe 2:242Co 5:19-201Pe 3:18Isa 53:10-12Phm 1:18-19
Is this blessing then pronounced only on the circumcised, or on the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness. Gal 3:14Col 3:11Eph 3:8Gal 3:26-28Rom 4:3Eph 2:11-13Rom 10:12-13Rom 15:8-19 How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. Gal 6:15Gal 5:61Co 7:18-19Gen 15:16Gen 15:5-6Gen 16:1-3Gen 17:1Gen 17:10 He received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they might be in uncircumcision, that righteousness might also be accounted to them. Luk 19:9Rom 3:222Co 1:22Heb 11:7Eph 1:13Eph 4:30Gal 3:22Gal 3:29 He is the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision. Jhn 8:39-40Pro 2:20Sng 1:81Pe 2:212Co 12:18Gal 4:22-31Job 33:11Luk 16:23-31
For the promise to Abraham and to his offspring that he would be heir of the world wasn’t through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. Gal 3:29Gen 28:14Gen 22:17-18Rom 9:8Psa 2:8Gen 17:4-6Gal 3:16-18Gen 17:16 For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect. Gal 3:18-24Heb 7:19Php 3:9Gal 2:21Heb 7:28Isa 55:11Rom 3:31Rom 4:16 For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience. Rom 5:13Gal 3:101Co 15:56Rom 3:19-20Rom 7:7-25Gal 3:19Jhn 3:361Jn 3:4
For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, to the end that the promise may be sure to all the offspring, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all. Rom 3:24-26Eph 2:8Rom 9:8Gal 3:22Tit 3:7Eph 2:5Isa 51:2Rom 15:8 As it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations.” 3 This is in the presence of him whom he believed: God, who gives life to the dead, and calls the things that are not, as though they were. 1Co 1:28Gen 17:4-5Jhn 5:21Rom 8:29-30Jhn 6:631Pe 2:10Eph 2:1-5Rom 8:11 Against hope, Abraham in hope believed, to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, “So will your offspring be.” 4 Rom 8:24Gen 15:5-6Rom 5:5Act 27:25Mrk 5:35-36Pro 13:12Ezk 37:11Rom 4:17 Without being weakened in faith, he didn’t consider his own body, already having been worn out, (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. Heb 11:11-19Gen 17:17Rom 4:20-21Gen 18:11-14Jhn 20:27-28Mat 14:31Mat 6:30Mat 8:26 Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn’t waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God, Luk 1:451Co 16:132Co 12:10Dan 10:192Ti 2:1Isa 35:4Isa 7:92Ch 20:15-20 and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was also able to perform. Luk 1:37Jer 32:27Heb 11:19Jer 32:17Luk 1:45Gen 18:142Ti 1:12Mat 19:26 Therefore it also was “credited to him for righteousness.” 5 Rom 4:3Rom 4:6 Now it was not written that it was accounted to him for his sake alone, 1Co 10:11Rom 15:41Co 10:62Ti 3:16-171Co 9:9-10 but for our sake also, to whom it will be accounted, who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, Act 2:241Pe 1:21Act 13:30Rom 10:9-10Act 2:39Eph 1:18-20Heb 13:20-21Jhn 3:14-16 who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification. 1Jn 4:9-10Isa 53:5-61Pe 2:241Pe 3:182Co 5:21Gal 1:41Jn 2:2Eph 5:2
