In the same way, Abraham“ believed God. God was pleased with Abraham because he believed. So his faith made him right with God.”( Genesis 15:6)

正如“亚伯拉罕信神，这就算为他的义”。

正如亚伯拉罕“信了上帝，这就算他为义”。

正如亚伯拉罕“信了神，这就算他为义”。

圣经上说：“亚伯拉罕信上帝，就被算为义人。”

正如亚伯拉罕信神，这就算为他的义。

正如“亚伯拉罕信神，这就被算为他的义”，

正如「亞伯拉罕信神，這就算為他的義」。

正如亞伯拉罕「信了上帝，這就算他為義」。

正如亞伯拉罕「信了神，這就算他為義」。

聖經上說：「亞伯拉罕信上帝，就被算為義人。」

正如亞伯拉罕信神，這就算為他的義。

亞伯拉罕就是這樣：『他信了上帝，這就算為他的義了』。

正如「亞伯拉罕信神，這就被算為他的義」，

如亞伯拉罕信上帝、遂以義歸之、

亞伯拉罕信上帝、遂得稱義、

即如亞伯拉罕信天主、其信遂視為其義、

即亞伯漢亦未始非因篤信天主、而稱義焉。

So also Abraham“ believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”

just as Abraham“ believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”?

In the same way,“ Abraham believed God, and God counted him as righteous because of his faith.”

just like Abraham who believed God, and it was credited to him for righteousness?

Just as Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.

just as Abraham“ believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”

Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.

Just as Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him for righteousness,

Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

Just as Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,

Even as Abraham“ believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.”

Abram believed the Lord. The Lord was pleased with Abram because he believed. So Abram’s faith made him right with the Lord.

He was absolutely sure that God had the power to do what he had promised.That’s why“ God accepted Abraham because he believed. So his faith made him right with God.”( Genesis 15:6)

That is what Scripture means where it says,“ Abraham believed God. God accepted Abraham because he believed. So his faith made him right with God.”( Genesis 15:6) And that’s not all. God called Abraham his friend.

They were written also for us. We believe in the God who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. So God will accept our faith and make us right with himself.

What do we find in Scripture? It says,“ Abraham believed God. God accepted Abraham’s faith, and so his faith made him right with God.”( Genesis 15:6)When a person works, their pay is not considered a gift. It is owed to them.But things are different with God. He makes ungodly people right with himself. If people trust in him, their faith is accepted even though they do not work. Their faith makes them right with God.King David says the same thing. He tells us how blessed people are when God makes them right with himself. They are blessed because they don’t have to do anything in return. David says,

Is that blessing only for those who are circumcised? Or is it also for those who are not circumcised? We have been saying that God accepted Abraham’s faith. So his faith made him right with God.When did it happen? Was it after Abraham was circumcised, or before? It was before he was circumcised, not after!He was circumcised as a sign of the covenant God had made with him. It showed that his faith had made him right with God before he was circumcised. So Abraham is the father of all believers who have not been circumcised. God accepts their faith. So their faith makes them right with him.

God was bringing the world back to himself through Christ. He did not hold people’s sins against them. God has trusted us with the message that people may be brought back to him.So we are Christ’s official messengers. It is as if God were making his appeal through us. Here is what Christ wants us to beg you to do. Come back to God!Christ didn’t have any sin. But God made him become sin for us. So we can be made right with God because of what Christ has done for us.

So those who depend on faith are blessed along with Abraham. He was the man of faith.

Why not? Because they tried to do it without faith. They tried to be right with God by what they did. They tripped over the stone that causes people to trip and fall.It is written,“ Look! In Zion I am laying a stone that causes people to trip. It is a rock that makes them fall. The one who believes in him will never be put to shame.”( Isaiah 8:14; 28:16)
