Romans 4 ; 1-25 answers
(1). But he ( Abraham ) has no such grounds before God.
(2). Scripture says Abraham put his faith in God , and that faith was counted to him as righteousness.
(3). Now if a man or woman does a piece of work for God , his wages are not counted as a favor , they are paid as dept. ( for Jesus being put on the cross for us )
(4). His credit be simply puts his faith in him who Acquits the guilty , then his faith is indeed counted as righteousness.
(5). Happy are they , he says , whose lawless deeds are forgiven , whose sins are burned away, happy is the man (or woman ) whose sins the Lord does not count against him.
(6). Consequently , he is the Father of all who have faith when uncircumcised , so that righteousness is counted to them and at the same time he is the Father of such of the circumcised as do not rely upon their circumcision alone. (NOTE) Yes both will go to heaven
(7). The promise was made on the grounds of faith , in order that it might be a matter of sheer GRACE , and that it might be valid for ALL.
(8). Those words were written , not for Abraham's sake alone , but our sake too ; it is to be counted in the same way to us who have faith in the God who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead ; for he was given up to death for our MISDEEDS , AND RAISED TO LIFE TO JUSTIFY US.
