因為神應許亞伯拉罕和他後裔，必得承受世界，不是因律法，乃是因信而得的義

Rom 4:9  如此看來，這福是單加給那受割禮的人嗎？不也是加給那未受割禮的人嗎？因我們所說，亞伯拉罕的信，就算為他的義，
Rom 4:10  是怎麼算的呢？是在他受割禮的時候呢？是在他未受割禮的時候呢？不是在受割禮的時候，乃是在未受割禮的時候。
Rom 4:11  並且他受了割禮的記號，作他未受割禮的時候因信稱義的印證，叫他作一切未受割禮而信之人的父，使他們也算為義；
Rom 4:12  又作受割禮之人的父，就是那些不但受割禮，並且按我們的祖宗亞伯拉罕未受割禮而信之蹤跡去行的人。
The Promise Realized Through Faith
Rom 4:13  因為神應許亞伯拉罕和他後裔，必得承受世界，不是因律法，乃是因信而得的義。

信心的偉人

Heb 11:6  人非有信，就不能得神的喜悅；因為到神面前來的人必須信有神，且信他賞賜那尋求他的人。
Heb 11:7  挪亞因著信，既蒙神指示他未見的事，動了敬畏的心，預備了一隻方舟，使他全家得救。因此就定了那世代的罪，自己也承受了那從信而來的義。
Heb 11:8  亞伯拉罕因著信，蒙召的時候就遵命出去，往將來要得為業的地方去；出去的時候，還不知往那裡去。
Heb 11:9  他因著信，就在所應許之地作客，好像在異地居住帳棚，與那同蒙一個應許的以撒、雅各一樣。
Heb 11:10  因為他等候那座有根基的城，就是神所經營所建造的。
Heb 11:11  因著信，連撒拉自己，雖然過了生育的歲數，還能懷孕，因他以為那應許他的是可信的。

GOD’S CALL AND PROMISE TO ABRAM

God’s commands are always associated with promises. Count the shalls and wills here. He does not give His reasons, but He is lavish of His promises. The keynote of Abram’s life was Separation. Step by step, until country, kindred, Lot, worldly alliances and fleshly expedients were one by one cast aside and he stood alone with God! Though he knew not whither he went, the father of the faithful obeyed, and crossed the wide and perilous deserts. It was this absolute and unquestioning obedience that endeared him to God. Let us ever obey and step out, though it seems as though there were nought but seething mist. We shall find it solidify under the tread of faith. Read Rom_4:16; Heb_11:8. Notice the combination of the Tent and Altar. The tent-life is natural to the man whose portion is God; and where he pitches his tent he will rear his altar.
