Abraham's Example

Pastor Bill Bush · Dec 13, 2021

In Romans 4, Paul uses Abraham as an illustration to show that no amount of good works, religious ritual, or law-keeping can make a person right with God. Like Batman trying to outrun Superman, our best human efforts fall hopelessly short of God's perfection. The only path to righteousness is the same one Abraham walked: simply believing God — not merely believing in God — and trusting in the grace and power that raised Jesus from the dead and makes us entirely new.
