Romans 4 New International Version (NIV) Abraham Justified by Faith 4 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. 3 What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” [] 4 Now to the one who works, wages are not credited as a gift but as an obligation.

5 However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness. 6 David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works. 7 “Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.

8 Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord will never count against them.” [] 9 Is this blessedness only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham’s faith was credited to him as righteousness. 10 Under what circumstances was it credited? Was it after he was circumcised, or before? It was not after, but before!

11 And he received circumcision as a sign, a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but have not been circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them. 12 And he is then also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised. 13 It was not through the law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith. 14 For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is worthless, 15 because the law brings wrath.

And where there is no law there is no transgression. 16 Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.

25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

Of course it was my fault. I eagerly anticipated this. I had it on order for a long time. I finally received it.

It felt good in the hands, as all Archipelago books do. I read a page or two, furtively, at work.

My anticipation to dive right in heightened, but since really diving in to a book while sitting at my desk at work is impossible I stoked my anticipation by googling M. Cartarescu, just to see what he looked like. Oh no not this fucking guy again. Download philippine history and government by gregorio zaide pdf free online. I remembered the face but not the name.

How could I have spent so much time eagerly squirming in anticipation of reading this book when I had had such a disastrous experience with his Nostalgia not that long ago? Answer: it was so disastrous I hid the book away in a closet and expunged the experience from my memory, and I was so easily seduced by the promotional squibs promising proliferating gothic urban dreamscapes, hidden passageways, mind-bending descriptions, imagination galore, etc., by the very fact that the dude is Romanian (I even remember thinking when I first saw this book 'maybe this is the guy I wanted the dude who wrote Nostalgia to be'). What a bumbling bad memory erasing idiot I am! I do not like Mircea Cartarescu. I do not like Mircea Cartarescu.
