Romans:4:11-24
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And he received (
5627 )
the sign of circumcision ,
a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised :
that he might be (
5750 )
the father of all them that believe (
5723 ),
though they be not circumcised ;
that righteousness might be imputed (
5683 )
unto them also :
*
And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only ,
but who also walk (
5723 )
in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham ,
which he had being yet uncircumcised .
*
For the promise ,
that he should be (
5750 )
the heir of the world ,
was not to Abraham ,
or to his seed ,
through the law ,
but through the righteousness of faith .
*
For if they which are of the law be heirs ,
faith is made void (
5769 ),
and the promise made of none effect (
5769 ):
*
Because the law worketh (
5736 )
wrath :
for where no law is (
5748 ),
there is no transgression .
*
Therefore it is of faith ,
that it might be by grace ;
to the end the promise might be (
5750 )
sure to all the seed ;
not to that only which is of the law ,
but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham ;
who is (
5748 )
the father of us all ,
* (
As it is written (
5769 ),
I have made (
5758 )
thee a father of many nations ,)
before him whom he believed (
5656 ),
even God ,
who quickeneth (
5723 )
the dead ,
and calleth (
5723 )
those things which be (
5752 )
not as though they were (
5752 ).
*
Who against hope believed (
5656 )
in hope ,
that he might become (
5635 )
the father of many nations ,
according to that which was spoken (
5772 ),
So shall thy seed be (
5704 ).
*
And being not weak (
5660 )
in faith ,
he considered (
5656 )
not his own body now dead (
5772 ),
when he was (
5723 )
about an hundred years old ,
neither yet the deadness of Saras womb :
*
He staggered (
5681 )
not at the promise of God through unbelief ;
but was strong (
5681 )
in faith ,
giving (
5631 )
glory to God ;
*
And being fully persuaded (
5685 )
that ,
what he had promised (
5766 ),
he was (
5748 )
able also to perform (
5658 ).
*
And therefore it was imputed (
5681 )
to him for righteousness .
*
Now it was not written (
5648 )
for his sake alone ,
that it was imputed (
5681 )
to him ;
*
But for us also ,
to whom it shall be (
5719 )
imputed (
5745 ),
if we believe (
5723 )
on him that raised up (
5660 )
Jesus our Lord from the dead ;
