'By Faith' in the Bible

And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while still uncircumcised. This was to make him the father of all who believe but are not circumcised, so that righteousness may be credited to them also.

For the promise to Abraham or to his descendants that he would inherit the world was not through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.

Why is that? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone.
