The Guarantee of our Resurrection
The covenant with Abraham is fulfilled in Jesus, including the possession of the Earth, the gift of the Spirit, and our Resurrection - Romans 8:1-30. In his Epistle to the Romans , Paul presents Abraham as the great exemplar of faith. God accounted the Patriarch’s faith as righteousness when he was still uncircumcised. This means that he was declared righteous without the deeds and rituals required by the Torah .
