Abraham's legacy


After Galatians 3:1-9
 

The inheritance is handed

down from Abraham, a man

whose faith, whose faithfulness,

was credited to him as

righteousness. It began with

him, the man who believed

(not the man who did or

the man who accomplished).

It is this faith which defines

who the sons, the heirs, are.

Nothing else. It is not

obedience to law, it is not

performance, it was nothing

Abraham did, it is nothing

we do. Or can do. We become

the sons of Abraham

by believing, not doing.

Faith first, then all else

follows.
