Abraham's Faith
from HBS & DwJ Podcast Hosted by Jerry M. Joyce
Blessings to all, Welcome again, I am Jerry, this portion of our study covers: ABRAHAM’S FAITH This is one of the greatest statements in the Scriptures: “And he believed in the LORD.” Abram believes God. This statement, from Genesis 15:6, is one of the key verses in all of the Bible. Abram’s belief in God is credited to him as righteousness. In the New Testament, both Paul and James quote this verse (Romans 4:3; Galatians 3:6; James 2:23), making it a cornerstone of the Christian teaching that God’s acceptance of us comes by His grace and through our faith. What this means is that Abram said amen to God. God has said, “I will do this for you,” and Abram says to God, “I believe You. Amen. I believe it.” And that was counted to him for righteousness.
