1. Abraham's Righteousness Apart from Works............... 4:1-8 Rom 4:1 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?Rom 4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.Rom 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.Rom 4:4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.Rom 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.Rom 4:6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,Rom 4:7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.Rom 4:8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. |
