45:004:013 For the promise, that he should be the
heir of the world, was
not
to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through
the
righteousness of faith.
45:004:014 For if they which are of the law be heirs,
faith is made void,
and
the promise made of none effect:
45:004:015 Because the law worketh wrath: for
where no law is, there is
no
transgression.
45:004:016 Therefore it is of faith, that it might
be by grace; to the
end
the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that
only
which is of the law, but to that also which is of the
faith
of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
45:004:017 (As it is written, I have made thee a father
of many nations,)
before
him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the
dead,
and calleth those things which be not as though they
were.
45:004:018 Who against hope believed in hope, that
he might become the
father
of many nations, according to that which was spoken,
So
shall
thy seed be.
45:004:019 And being not weak in faith, he considered
not his own body
now
dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither
yet
the
deadness of Sarah’s womb:
45:004:020 He staggered not at the promise of God
through unbelief; but
was
strong in faith, giving glory to God;
45:004:021 And being fully persuaded that, what he
had promised, he was
able
also to perform.
45:004:022 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
45:004:023 Now it was not written for his sake alone,
that it was imputed
to
him;
45:004:024 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed,
if we believe on
him
that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
45:004:025 Who was delivered for our offences, and
was raised again for
our
justification.
45:005:001 Therefore being justified by faith, we
have peace with God
through
our Lord Jesus Christ:
45:005:002 By whom also we have access by faith into
this grace wherein
we
stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
45:005:003 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations
also: knowing
that
tribulation worketh patience;
45:005:004 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
45:005:005 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the
love of God is shed
abroad
in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto
us.
45:005:006 For when we were yet without strength,
in due time Christ died
for
the ungodly.
45:005:007 For scarcely for a righteous man will one
die: yet
peradventure
for a good man some would even dare to die.
