My Family History. :) no one has ever said that to me before. I like it a lot. I'm the only one in my family that has ever started a bible study. I have been talking to them about your questions and starting a conversation that I wish my parents or someone could have had with me when I was younger. Thank you for being here during covid. I'm grateful.

I’m doing the Quest bible study by Beth Moore and last night, we were asked to read Romans 4, and compare it with Genesis 15. Abraham believed the Lord, and it was credited to him as righteousness because he saw God make a covenant with him. How could Abraham NOT believe after witnessing the events that unfolded in chapter 15. This is one of my favorite moments in the OT! Then thinking back even to Hebrews and verses 23-24 of this chapter, we are able to have the same faith because Jesus is the maker of the New Covenant with us. This is a great reminder and a great challenge for me today! Let’s follow the example of the faith of our father, Abraham. (v. 12)

Thank you so much for doing these videos. I just really wanted to understand Romans and reading it by myself was making it difficult so I prayed and asked God for a way to understand it and then I came across your videos. So I just wanted to say thank you.

Now Psalm 32 is just about forgiveness but if you read down in the Psalm it was because they repent. Now let's do a little Bible study to see what he referring to Genesis 15:1-6 where Abraham had a vision and in verse 6 that is where he was counted righteous or "aman" which is to carry something or support but it goes in verse 6 to tell us something that happened earlier in Genesis 12:1-8. In Genesis 12:1-8 Abraham was given the same given over again and told for the promise to be fulfilled he would have to obey God and leave his homeland and he made altars and gave burnt offerings on the way and did all kinds of things for God in the following chapters. In fact, Hebrews 11:8 the Fatih chapter says this was Abraham's faith here obeying God. As for Romans 3 and the rest of Romans 4, Romans 11, Galatians 2 and Galatians 3, those in context are about the law of Moses which there two laws the other is the law of Christ see 1 Corinthians 9:21 and there are issues as well like the uncircumcised saints before Abraham is one because some Jews believed circumcision was the birthright to salvation and there were no works needed for born Jew. That is another fallacy circumcision isn't done by the baby or even by an adult getting it is done by a priest or Rabbi so it isn't a work and if you read the New Testament Jews believed they were saved by circumcision done by the priest alone. As for Ephesians 2:8-10 it is about the initial justification for your sins from before you were saved as the context in verses 1-6 shows. Just a hand full of passages that teach works being a part of salvation include 1 Corinthians 3:10-15 John 3:36 Revelation 2:5-7 Revelation 22:12 (in Luke 10:25-28 Jesus salvation is by loving him, in John 14:15 Jesus says what loving him is and in 1 John 5:2-4 says if you love Jesus you will keep his commandments) Hebrews 5:8-9 Galatians 6:7-9 Philippians 2:12 Colossians 3:23-25 James 2:14-24 1 Romans 6:16-22 (22 makes it clear) Corinthians 9:24-27. If you go to Hebrews 11 in the Greek it defines toward the start of the chapter as “hypostasis" which “hypostasis" is a very common word from Aristotle on and comes from "huphistemi, " what stands under anything (a building, a contract, a promise).” Your faith though is not what he promises or what he builds it's what you build under him and with him. Let's continue to the next source. Clement of Alexandria and others make this same argument about "pistis" and “Hypostasis" but without the picture just stating that it was a physical action which Romans 14 showing little means little action supports this. Secular writers made the point about "hypostasis" so this was not isolated to Christians understanding just from Hebrews the author used something in Greek thought.
