Faith, Grace and Works

Abraham believed in hope that he might become the father of many nations according to that which was spoken, so shall thy seed be. He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief but was strong in faith giving glory to God. And therefore being justified by faith, our faith, our reliance is on Christ, not on our own works. We don't live in a state of shamefulness and self-loathing and beating oneself up, it's peace in Christ. It's like taking money and saying, like, take a coin and you only like one side of the coin, but you're going to get rid of the other side. You have to throw it all out.
