The faith that we see here demonstrated by Abraham is more than just:Historical Faith or Temporary Faith.

Abraham had: Saving Faith and Miracle Faith.

The Jews believed that Abraham was accepted by God because:

1. He kept the Commandments of God.

2. He was Circumcised.

But Paul shows us they were not saved by keeping laws.

Paul makes a major turn in his letter. God has Revealed how we can be Righteous. God has Revealed how we can Obtain this Righteousness.

We need to understand this Diagnosis of man’s Problem, because if we don’t, we could end up treating the Symptoms, and not the Cause.

Paul addresses the Hebrews. They were guilty of profession without performance, and privilege without perception.

When we come to understand the gospel properly, we see that it is Bad news for Good people and we realise the gospel is Good news for Bad people.

The major point of Romans 1:24–32 is that when people persistently Abandon God, God will Abandon them.

Paul is making his Case point by point to show that man is Guilty before God and in need of Salvation. Paul’s case against man is summed up -- he is a “Truth Suppressor”.

The gospel is a Revelation of a Righteousness from God. The gospel tells us that God, who is Perfect and Righteous, has made a Way that His righteousness can be Given to you and to me.
