Romans 4:1-4 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. What should we say about those things? What did our father Abraham discover about being right with God?

2. Did he become right with God because of something he did? If so, he could brag about it. But he couldn't brag to God.

3. What do we find in Scripture? It says, "Abraham believed God. God accepted Abraham's faith, and so his faith made him right with God." (Genesis 15:6)

4. When a man works, his pay is not considered a gift. It is owed to him.
