Notes
This quote is from Genesis 15:6, where God made his covenant (special agreement) with Abraham (see Genesis 15:1–21; 17:1–27). This statement is essential to explain God's relationship with people (see Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 4:1–8, 17–22).
Abraham's story shows that faith has always been the basis for a relationship with God and for receiving God's promises.
