Abraham » Faith of
And he had faith in Yahweh, - so he reckoned it to him as righteousness.
Verse Concepts
What then shall we say - as touching Abraham our forefather? For, if Abraham by works was declared righteous, he hath whereof to boast; - nevertheless, not towards God, - For what doth the Scripture say? And Abraham believed in God, and it was reckoned unto him as righteousness. read more.
Now, unto him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned by way of favour but by way of obligation, Whereas, unto him that worketh not but believeth on him that declareth righteous the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness. Just as David also affirmeth the happiness of the man unto whom God reckoneth righteousness apart from works: - Happy, they whose lawlessnesses have been forgiven and whose sins have been covered, Happy, the man whose sin the Lord will in nowise reckon. This happiness, then, is it for the circumcision, or for the uncircumcision? for we say - His faith was reckoned unto Abraham as righteousness: How, then, was it reckoned? When he was in circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision; And, a sign, he received namely of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while yet uncircumcised; to the end he might be father of all that believe during uncircumcision, to the end the same righteousness might be reckoned unto them, - And father of circumcision - unto them who are not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of the faith, while yet uncircumcised, of our father Abraham. For, not through means of law, doth the promise belong unto Abraham or unto his seed, - that he should be heir of thee world; but, through a righteousness by faith. For, if they who are of law are heirs, made void is faith and of no effect is the promise. For, the law, worketh out anger, but, where there is no law, neither is there transgression. For this cause, it is by faith, in order that it may be by way of favour, so that the promise is firm unto all the seed, - not unto that by the law only, but unto that also which is such by the faith of Abraham; who is father of us all, - Even as it is written - Father of many nations, have I appointed thee: before him whom he believed - God, who causeth the dead to live, and calleth the things that are not as things that are: - Who, past hope, upon hope believed, so that he became father of many nations, - according to what had been said - So shall be thy seed; - And, without becoming weak in his faith, he attentively considered his own body, already deadened - he being a hundred years old, the deadening also of Sarah's womb; In respect, however, of the promise of God, he was not led to hesitate by unbelief, but received power by his faith, giving glory unto God, And being fully persuaded (that), - what he hath promised, able is he also to perform: Wherefore also, it was reckoned unto him as righteousness.

Even as Abraham - believed in God, and it was reckoned unto him as righteousness. Be taking note, therefore - that, they who are of faith, the same, are, sons, of Abraham; And, the scripture, foreseeing, that, by faith, God would declare the nations righteous, fore-announced the good news unto Abraham, saying, All the nations shall be blessed in thee. read more.
So then, they who are of faith, are blessed with believing Abraham;
So then, they who are of faith, are blessed with believing Abraham;
By faith, being called, Abraham obeyed - to come forth into a place he was destined to receive for an inheritance; and he came forth, not well knowing whither he was coming. By faith, he sojourned in the land of promise, as a foreign land, in tents, dwelling, along with Isaac and Jacob, the joint-heirs of the same promise; For he was awaiting the city having foundations, whose architect and builder is, God.
By faith, Abraham, when tested, offered up Isaac, and, the only-begotten, would he have offered up, who the promises had accepted, - Even him of whom it had been said - In Isaac, shall there be called to thee, a seed: Accounting that, even from among the dead, God, was able, to raise him , - whence, even in similitude, he bare him away.
Abraham our father, was it not, by works, he was declared righteous - when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Thou seest that, his faith, had been working together with his works, and by his works did his faith become full-grown, - And the scripture was fulfilled which saith - And Abraham believed God, And it was reckoned to him as righteousness, and, God's friend, was he called: read more.
Ye see that - by works, a man is declared righteous, and not by faith alone.
Ye see that - by works, a man is declared righteous, and not by faith alone.
