Genesis
15:6
And
he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
Galatians
3:14
That
the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that
we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Romans
4:9
Cometh
this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision
also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
The
blessing of Abraham (Gal 3:14) is the blessedness (Rom 4:9) experienced by
Abraham through his act of believing the promise of God described in Gen
15:1-6. With this evidence, Apostle Paul repudiated the Judaizers' insistence
upon the necessity of observing the ceremonial law.
In
Gen 15:1-6, Abraham's faith was reckoned to him for righteousness; it was NOT,
NOT and NOT the righteousness of Christ was reckoned to Abraham for his
justification before God. The two are worlds apart.
The
former is the truth; the latter is a popular fable - but that's what so many
imagine and believe.
Not
knowing the difference leads to the popular error of justification by faith alone. They will go on
repeating the shibboleth.
A
biblical distinction is the essence of sound theology, of rightly dividing the
word of truth.
