Justified by Faith
The Apostle Paul highlights two Biblical figures, Abraham and David, as examples in this passage. Advising others with mere words is easy, but these two figures not only gave advice but also lived by example.
Abraham, as the forefather (Romans 4:1), was highly respected and was justified by his faith and trust in God, not merely by his deeds (Romans 4:3). Similarly, David was justified by God not only because of his actions (Romans 4:6-8).
Our faith and trust in God are essential and are counted as righteousness before Him. Blessed are we who believe in the Lord our God. Let us reflect this faith and trust in our daily actions. Amen.
