Faith in God's Promise

Aug 18, 2024    Pastor Matt Keller

In an in-depth look at Romans 4, we are reminded that God's promises are steadfast and rooted in His character, not in our ability to adhere to the law. Abraham's story illustrates that the promise of being the heir of the world was given through the righteousness of faith, not through the law, which brings wrath. Abraham's unwavering faith, despite his advanced age and Sarah's barrenness, serves as a testament to the righteousness that comes from faith. Ultimately, the promise of salvation is a gift of grace available to all through faith in Jesus Christ, just as Abraham believed God could bring life from death. We are challenged to trust God in every aspect of our lives and to take practical steps to grow in faith, reflecting on His promises and His unwavering faithfulness.
