    In Romans 4:13-25, Paul shows how Abraham believed that what God promised, God would do. Similarly, in order to be made right with God, we must believe that God will make good on His promise to save those who put their trust in Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection.

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 15, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,905 views

    There is a growing trend within some circles of Christianity to teach that a Born-Again Christian can declare and decree things over themselves, and others, as already done.

    The primary Scripture verse to support the teaching is: “Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” (Job 22:28 KJV) The Hebrew word translated ‘decree’ in the verse is ‘gazar’ which is a verb in the masculine singular, and ...read more
