"And he [Abram] believed in the Lord, and He accounted it to him for righteousness."
The faith that justified Abram was a faith in the Lord. He understood that God is worthy of our complete trust because He is trustworthy and merits our devotion and our obedience. His was not a faith like demons have (James 2:19), where they understand and believe in God but don't believe unto salvation. To say I believe in God means nothing if I don't submit to Him as Lord and Savior. To say I believe in the Lord must be accompanied by obedience to Him. May God reckon unto us this righteousness!
May we exhibit such faith!

About Me
- Enoch_Elijah
- Nampa, Idaho, United States
- The basics: I am the husband of one beautiful woman and the father of four handsome sons. For many years I taught adult Sunday school classes and one of my blogs (luna4him) serves as a way for me to share what I learn in my personal studies as well as what insights I might get from from the sermons at church or books I read. Interesting links and book reviews are also fair game! My second blog (books4myboys) is where I will publish reviews for good books boys will enjoy. There are so many good books for boys out there and this blog will serve as a way for me to share them with my friends and family.
