Faith: Our faith is because of Abrahams believing

Our faith is because of Abrahams believing

Galatians 2:19-20

¹⁹ For I through (passing through) the law am dead (died) to the law, that I might live unto (motion towards or to) God.

²⁰ I am crucified (nailed or staked to a tree) with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in (resting within) me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the FAITH of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

²¹ I do not frustrate (reject) the grace (kind, affectionate disposition) of God: for if righteousness come by (through) the law, then Christ is dead (died) in vain.

Abraham believed in God and it was counted to him for righteousness (the doing or being what is just and right)

Galatians 3:5-6

⁵ He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

⁶ Even as Abraham believed (to have faith in) God, and it was accounted (imputed) to him for (motion towards) righteousness (the doing or being what is just and right).

⁸ And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify (set forth as righteous) the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

⁹ So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
