bwe@Luke:1:55 @ He has remembered to be kind just as he said to our fathers of long ago. He promised to be kind to Abraham and his childrens children for ever.

bwe@Luke:13:16 @ This woman belongs to Abrahams family. Satan has tied her for eighteen years. Is it not right that she should be set free on the Sabbath day?

bwe@Luke:13:28 @ You will see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God. And you will see yourselves thrown out. Then you will cry and make a noise with your teeth.

bwe@Luke:16:22 @ The poor man died. Angels carried him to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.

bwe@Luke:16:23 @ He was in great pain in the world of dead people. He looked up and saw Abraham far away. With him was Lazarus.

bwe@Luke:16:24 @ He called out, "Father Abraham, help me! Send Lazarus to dip his finger in some water and cool my tongue. This fire is very hot for me."

bwe@Luke:16:25 @ But Abraham said to him, "Son, remember this. You had a good time when you were living. Lazarus had a bad time when he was living. But now he is happy here and you are in pain.

bwe@Luke:16:29 @ But Abraham said, "They have Moses and the Prophets. They can listen to them."

bwe@Luke:16:30 @ He answered, "No, father Abraham! But if a man who had died went to them, they would stop their wrong ways."

bwe@Luke:16:31 @ Abraham said, "If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, then they will not believe, even if a man were raised from death."

bwe@Luke:19:9 @ Jesus said to him, The head of this house has been saved today! He also is a son of Abraham.

bwe@Luke:20:37 @ Even Moses showed that people do rise from death. It is in his book where we read about the small tree which burned. Moses says that the Lord is the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

bwe@John:8:33 @ They said to him, We are Abrahams children. We have always been free. Why do you say to us, "You will be free"?

bwe@John:8:37 @ I know that you come from Abraham. But you want to kill me because you do not like what I tell you.

bwe@John:8:39 @ They answered him, Abraham is our father. Jesus said, If you were Abrahams children, you would do what Abraham did.

bwe@John:8:40 @ But you want to kill me because I told you the truth which I learned from God. Abraham did not do that.

bwe@John:8:52 @ The leaders of the Jews said to him, Now we know it is true that a bad spirit is in you. Abraham died. So did the prophets. And yet you say, "If anyone obeys my word, he will never die."

bwe@John:8:53 @ Are you greater than our father Abraham and the prophets of God who died long ago? Who do you make yourself out to be?

bwe@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham was glad that he would see my coming. He did see it and he was very glad.

bwe@John:8:57 @ The Jewish leaders said to him, You are not fifty years old yet. How could Abraham see you?

bwe@John:8:58 @ Jesus answered, I tell you the truth. I already was before Abraham was born.

bwe@Acts:3:13 @ The God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and of our fathers, has made his Son Jesus great. You gave him up to Pilate. You did not want to believe who he was. You did not want him back when Pilate agreed to let him go free.

bwe@Acts:3:25 @ You are the people who have received what the prophets promised. And you have received the agreement which God made with your fathers. He said to Abraham, "Through your children all the nations of the earth will receive blessing."

bwe@Acts:7:2 @ Stephen replied, Men, brothers and fathers, listen to me. When our father Abraham was in the country of Mesopotamia, before he lived in the country of Haran, the God who is great and wonderful came to him.

bwe@Acts:7:4 @ Then Abraham came out of the country of the Chaldeans and lived for a while in the country of Haran. After his father died, God led him from there to this country where you are living now.

bwe@Acts:7:5 @ But God did not give any of the land to Abraham, not even a small part. But he promised that the land would belong to him. After him it would belong to his children, even though he did not have a child then.

bwe@Acts:7:6 @ This is what God told Abraham. He told him that his children would travel and live in another land. They would be slaves to the people there. They would have a hard time for four hundred years.

bwe@Acts:7:8 @ God made the agreement of circumcision with Abraham. Abraham had a son Isaac. He made the mark of circumcision on the childs body and circumcised him on the eighth day. Isaac had a son Jacob, and Jacob had twelve sons who were our fathers.

bwe@Acts:7:16 @ They were taken back to the place called Shechem and buried. Abraham had bought a grave from the family of Hamor in Shechem. He had paid money for it.

bwe@Acts:7:17 @ Then it was almost time for God to do what he had promised to Abraham. The family of Jacob had become very large in Egypt.

bwe@Acts:7:32 @ The Lord said, "I am the God of your fathers. I am the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob." Moses began to shake. He was afraid to look.

bwe@Acts:13:26 @ Men and brothers, sons of Abraham, and all of you who worship God, the news of this way to be saved has been sent to us.

bwe@Romans:4:1 @ So what shall we say about Abraham? He is the father of our family on earth.

bwe@Romans:4:2 @ If Abraham was put right with God, because of what he did, he has something to be proud of. But he has nothing to be proud of when he stands before God.

bwe@Romans:4:3 @ What do the holy writings say? It says, Abraham believed God. And God said that he was a good man.

bwe@Romans:4:9 @ Does God bless only people who have been circumcised? Or does he also bless those who are not? We say, because Abraham believed God, God called him a good man. His faith made him right with God.

bwe@Romans:4:10 @ When did God say that? Was it when Abraham was circumcised? Or was it before? It was not when he was circumcised: it was before.

bwe@Romans:4:11 @ Abraham was circumcised as a sign. It was a sign that he was a good man, because he believed when he was not yet circumcised. That makes him the father of all people who believe, even those who are not circumcised. God says they are good people.

bwe@Romans:4:12 @ That makes him also the father of those who are circumcised. I mean people who are circumcised and do as our father Abraham did. Even when he was not circumcised, he believed.

bwe@Romans:4:13 @ God promised Abraham and his family that the world would belong to them. God did not make the promise because Abraham obeyed the law. But he made the promise because Abraham believed him and was put right with God.

bwe@Romans:4:16 @ That is why people must believe. Because God is kind, he makes the promise sure for all of Abrahams children. The promise is for those who have the law and also for those who believe as Abraham did. He is the father of us all.

bwe@Romans:4:17 @ the holy writings say, I have made you the father of many nations. Abraham was made the father of many nations by God. He believed God. He believed that God could make dead people live. He believed God when he said that things were true even though they had not happened yet.

bwe@Romans:4:18 @ Abraham believed and hoped, though there was nothing to give him hope. He believed that he would become the father of many nations. God had told him this would happen.

bwe@Romans:4:23 @ The holy writings do not say that for Abraham only.

bwe@Romans:9:6 @ Not all the people in Abrahams family are his children. But the holy writings say, It is Isaacs family who will be called your family.

bwe@Romans:9:7 @ This means that not all who were born in Abrahams family are Gods children. God promised Abraham a son <FI>Isaac<Fi>. His children <FI>the Jews<Fi> are the ones that God called Abrahams true family.

bwe@Romans:11:1 @ So I ask, has God left his people? No, he has not! I myself am a Jew. I was born in Abrahams family. I belong to the tribe of Benjamin.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:21 @ Are they Hebrew people? So am I. Are they Israels people? So am I. Is Abraham their father? He is mine too.

bwe@Galatians:3:6 @ So it was with Abraham. The holy writings say He believed God, and that was why God called him a good man.

bwe@Galatians:3:7 @ You see then, the people who believe God are children of Abraham.

bwe@Galatians:3:8 @ The holy writings say that he will put people right with himself if they believe him, even those who are not Jews. It was written down before God did it. The holy writings told the good news to Abraham ahead of time. It said, God will make you a blessing to all nations and people.

bwe@Galatians:3:9 @ Abraham believed God and was blessed. And so those who believe God are blessed too, along with him.

bwe@Galatians:3:14 @ Christ Jesus did this so that those who are not Jews will have the blessing which Abraham had. He did this so that when we believe, we will receive the Spirit who was promised to us.

bwe@Galatians:3:16 @ God made his promises to Abraham and to his Son. The promise does not have the words, and to his sons, for that means many sons. But it says, and to his Son, and that Son is Christ.

bwe@Galatians:3:17 @ Here is what I mean. The law was given <FI>to Moses<Fi> four hundred and thirty years after God gave that promise to Abraham. But it cannot break the strong promise which God made. And the law cannot change Gods promise.

bwe@Galatians:3:18 @ Do we get what God has promised us by obeying the law? If we do, then we are not getting it by his promise. But God gave it to Abraham by his promise.

bwe@Galatians:3:29 @ If you belong to Christ, you are Abrahams children. And if you are Abrahams children, you will receive the blessing that God has promised.

bwe@Galatians:4:22 @ The holy writings say that Abraham had two sons. One was the son of the slave woman. The other one was the son of the free woman.

bwe@Galatians:4:29 @ Abrahams child who was born as any child is born, troubled the other child who was born by the Spirit. It is that way today.

bwe@Hebrews:2:16 @ Jesus did not come to help angels. He came to help people who were born in Abrahams family.

bwe@Hebrews:6:13 @ God made a promise to Abraham. God did not have anyone greater than himself to hear his promise.

bwe@Hebrews:6:15 @ Abraham kept on believing God. And so he got what God had promised him.

bwe@Hebrews:7:1 @ Melchizedek was king of the city of Salem. He was a priest of God who is the greatest of all. Melchizedek met Abraham when Abraham came back from killing some bad kings. And Melchizedek blessed him.

bwe@Hebrews:7:2 @ Abraham divided all that he took away from the kings into ten parts. He gave Melchizedek one part. First, the name Melchizedek means the king who is true and right with God. Then he was king of Salem. That means king of peace.

bwe@Hebrews:7:4 @ Just think how great he was! Even Abraham, the father of our people, gave him a tenth, one part out of ten, of all he brought back.

bwe@Hebrews:7:5 @ The sons of Levi, who are priests, have the right by law to take a tenth of what the people have. These people are their own brothers. They also are Abrahams children.

bwe@Hebrews:7:6 @ But Melchizedek was not from Levis family. Yet he took a tenth of what Abraham had. And he blessed Abraham, to whom God made the promise.

bwe@Hebrews:7:9 @ And we say that Levi, the priest who takes the tenth from the people, gave his tenth through Abraham.

bwe@Hebrews:7:10 @ He was not yet born when Melchizedek met Abraham.

bwe@Hebrews:11:8 @ God called Abraham to go away to a place which he would have as his own. Because Abraham believed God, he obeyed him. He went even though he did not know where he was to go.

bwe@Hebrews:11:10 @ Abraham was looking for a city which will last for ever. It was the city God planned and made.

bwe@Hebrews:11:12 @ Abraham was too old to be a father, but a great nation was born from that one man. They are as many as the stars in the sky and as the sands on the seaside. No man can count them.

bwe@Hebrews:11:17 @ Abraham believed God when he was tested. The test was to give Isaac as a sacrifice. Abraham gave up his only son, even though God had made a promise to him about Isaac.

bwe@Hebrews:11:18 @ God had said to Abraham, Isaacs children will be called your family.

bwe@Hebrews:11:19 @ Abraham said in his heart that God could bring Isaac back to life. And so it was just as if he did get his son back.

bwe@James:2:21 @ Look at Abraham. God called our father Abraham a good man. This was because he gave his son Isaac to God on the holy table for a sacrifice.

bwe@James:2:23 @ The words of the holy writings came true. They say, Abraham believed God. And he was called a good man because of it. In another place he was called Gods friend.

bwe@1Peter:3:6 @ Sarah obeyed Abraham. She called him her master. You are her children if you do what is right and are not afraid of trouble.
