    Abraham accounted righteous for his faith

    Romans 4:1-25 Abraham was accounted righteous by his faith—not good works. Our righteousness is as filthy rags—Isa. 64:6. We are righteous only through the new birth—John 3:1-8; II Cor. 5:17. To be right with God, we must be right with our fellowman. Note Abraham's ...read more

    This sermon is a part of "A Faith That Works" sermon series and looks at what it takes to keep faith when we're asked to wait.

    A Faith That Works Keeping Faith in God’s Waiting Room Romans 4:17-21 There’s a singular truth in advertising, and doctors make it. They call the room where people sit prior to their appointments, “Waiting rooms.” Is that truth in advertising or what? Have you ever been ...read more

    Abraham Believed God

    Abraham was not justified by works... nor by the law.

    ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD. Romans 4:1-5; Romans 4:13-17. Righteousness is not something which we can accomplish, but rather comes as a gift from God through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 3:21-22; Romans 3:26). The Apostle Paul illustrates this by precedent: “Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned ...read more

    Through faith we appropriate God’s free gift of salvation.

    The Ramifications Of Faith Text: Romans 4:13-25 Introduction 1. Illustration: For God does not want to save us by our own but by an extraneous righteousness, one that does not originate in ourselves but comes to us from beyond ourselves, which does not arise on earth but comes from heaven. – ...read more

    The Scriptures reveal that God spoke to Abraham only 7 or 8 times. Even though many people are constantly talking about how God is speaking to them every day, most of us do not hear from God that frequently. What do you do when God is silent?

    "Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram......And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me and be thou perfect.” Introduction: The interaction between God and Abram and later ...read more

    Lesson 14: Justification Is Illustrated In The Old Testament. Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 27, 2018
     | 7,597 views

    In this chapter, Paul analyzes the principle by which God saved Abraham. The father of Israel is an illustration of God’s message of salvation in the Old Testament.

    (14) Justification is illustrated in the Old Testament. Romans 4:1-25 1 What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh? 2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. 3 For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham ...read more

    Abraham

    Why was Abram’s name changed to Abraham? Why is he called father Abraham? Let’s look at Genesis 12-25 and the life of a patriarch of our faith.

    A study of the patriarchs and matriarchs reveals that they were very imperfect people, but blessed by God because of faith. This should be an encouragement to us who are likewise very imperfect, but trust in God. Why was Abram’s name changed to Abraham? Why is he called father Abraham? Let’s look ...read more

    Faith Is Accounted For Righteousness

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Aug 23, 2021
     | 2,379 views

    God has always required those who want to be righteous to place their faith in Him. This has been always been true. As far back as Abraham in the Old Testament it has been true.

    Alba 8-22-2021 FAITH IS ACCOUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS Romans 4 John Newton, who wrote the song “Amazing Grace”, once said: “Down through life I have forgotten a lot of things.

    Lent is a ritual of the Church that leads us into the hope we have in Jesus. Fasting and Prayer are disciplines of Lent to bring about suffering to draw a person closer to God

    “Lent is one of the oldest observations on the Christian calendar. Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter.

    Zechariah's Fourth Vision: Qualified For Service Series

    Christians must know the basis of their acceptance before God if they are to successfully defeat Satan and his tactic of accusation. In this vision, we are given a beautiful picture of the grace of God removing our filthy garments of sin and clothing us with his Robe of Righteousness.

    Today we will begin examining Zechariah’s fourth vision recorded in chapter 3. The vision can be divided into two-parts: I. Verses 1-5 is a revelation of God’s way of qualifying his people for relationship with him and for service to him. II. Verses 7-10 contains an admonition to faithfulness ...read more

    What Kind Of Faith Saves? Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 27, 2021
     | 3,177 views

    Most of us know people who say they believe in Christ, and yet there is nothing about their lives that distinguishes from non-Christians otherwise? So what kind of faith actually saves?

    What kind of faith saves? It’s an important question. It’s a critical question because we all know many people who say they believe in Jesus. But there’s virtually nothing in their lives that sets them out as any different from the non-Christian who lives next door. They neither attend church, ...read more
