Galatians 3:5-22
Well we're reading all about faith today and, once again, whose name should show up but...Abraham? He really does give us a stellar example of faith--having faith in God and living by it. I love the last few words of verse 9 where Abraham is referred to as "the man of faith."
Based on what we see here in Galatians 3:5-22, how would you explain to someone being "blessed by faith" or "hearing with faith" versus works of the law? If someone was thinking of you today, would they say you were a man/woman of faith? Tami W.
When I don't have the words to express my thoughts I have faith that God knows them and He is all I have to please. Pray I will not let feelings of insignificance or ignorance have a foothold.
One of the concepts that comfort me when people or circumstances either are good are bad are that God will reward or punish those who I come in contact with and I do not need to concern myself with it. The bible states they He will bless those who bless us and curse those who curse us. We share in this blessing as a believer.
"So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith."
First came transgressions, with them came the curse then the Law for those cursed to live under. Abraham being a man of faith doing what God asked of him. If Abraham did nothing of what the Lord asked he would not be counted righteous. So if you have faith dont be lazy.
