Romans 4 highlights Abraham’s unwavering faith in God’s promise despite impossible circumstances. His righteousness came not through works but through trusting God. Likewise, we are made right with God by faith in Jesus, not our efforts. True faith shifts confidence from ourselves to Christ, who died and rose for us.
