No, Abraham kept believing in God’s promise and his faith grew stronger as he gave glory to God. He was absolutely sure that God had the power to do what he had promised.

As it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations.” The God Abraham believed in considers him to be our father. This is the God who gives life to the dead and creates things that didn’t exist before.

Jesus was handed over to die for our sins, and he was raised to life in order to make us right with God.

Even though there was no reason for hope, Abraham still had hope, and he believed. That was how he became the father of many nations, exactly as God had promised. God had told him, “That is how many children you will have.”

That’s why the promise comes by faith, so that it can be based on God’s grace and be guaranteed to all of Abraham’s children. That means not only those who are his children under the law, but also those who are Abraham’s children because have the same faith that he did. He is the father of us all.

“Blessed are those whose lawless acts are forgiven, whose sins are taken away. Blessed are those whose sins the Lord will never count against them.”

But what does Scripture say? It says, “Abraham believed God, and this faith was counted as being right with God.”
