WPNT(i)
1 What then shall we say that our father Abraham discovered, as a man?
2 If Abraham was really justified by works, he has a boast—but not before God.
3 So what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
4 Now to him who works, the pay is not counted as a gift but as an obligation.
5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness.
6 Just as David speaks of the blessing of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed are they whose lawless deeds have been forgiven, and whose sins have been covered up.
8 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD will not impute sin!”
