Romans 4:18-25 (NIV)
18) Against all hope, Abraham in
hope believed and so became the
father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” 19) Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead.
20) Yet he did not waver through
unbelief regarding the promise of
God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, 21) being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. 22) This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” 23) The words “it was credited to him” were written not for him alone, 24) but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness—for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.
25) He was delivered over to death
for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.
