The Bible tells us that “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness” (Gen. 15:6). Many believers think that Abraham believed God in a general way, and this was accounted to him as righteousness. But if we look at what really happened in Genesis 15 and if we read Romans 4 and […]
