Study 8 From The Book of Romans Is: Romans 4:16-25
1. Consider the correspondences
between Abraham’s faith and ours, for example, (a) the promise to
Abraham (Gn. 15:5, 6) and the corresponding promise to us (b) the inability of
Abraham in himself (verses 18, 19) and our corresponding inability (see 3:20);
(c) the God in whom Abraham believed (verse 17) and the God in whom we believe
(verse 24); (d) the result to Abraham
(verse 18) and to us (5:1, 2).
2. Verse 25. In what sense are our
sins the reason for Christ’s death and our justification the purpose of His
resurrection? Cf. Is. 53:4-6, 8b, 11; 1
Pet. 2:24; 1 Cor. 15:17.
