“Back to the Forefathers”
Romans 4: 1: “What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, has found?” What Jesus showed the Pharisees, St. Paul showed the Romans: “Go back!” To understand the relationship between faith, works, and righteousness, go back to a man first seen in the eleventh chapter of the Bible (out of 1, 189, not counting the apocrypha). Sometimes there’s no school like the old school.
