Romans 4:1-16 HOW THE JUST LIVE BY FAITH part 2 04/25/21

Romans 4:9-16 | WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?

All we have to do is confess with our mouths and believe in our hearts that Jesus Christ is Lord. That's it!

IS SALVATION TOO EASY?

Abraham's faith was counted as righteous by God.

David committed adultery then murdered the woman's husband to cover his sin yet he is called a man after God's own heart! How could this be!?!

David wasn't even circumcised when God declared him righteous so since Gentiles were not circumcised we see that Gentiles had the same privilege as the Jews.

Likewise, Abraham was accepted as righteous by God 14 years prior to circumcision.

So, no ritual even today can save us. Salvation comes only by faith alone, not of works.

Water baptism is an outward show of our commitment, not a means to salvation.
