Are You A Son Of Abraham? | Galatians 3:6-9
In Galatians 3:6–9, Paul points us back to Abraham to remind us that justification has always been by faith—not by works, circumcision, ethnicity, or human effort. Abraham was counted righteous because he believed God, even before circumcision or the Law was given. His story demonstrates that righteousness is not something we earn, but something God graciously credits to those who believe.
So, who are the true sons of Abraham? Paul makes it clear: those who are of faith. This blessing is not limited by family background, ethnicity, or religious heritage, but is extended to all who trust in Christ. As we reflect on our own lives, may we examine whether we are truly resting in the finished work of Christ alone—or placing our confidence in our works, upbringing, knowledge, ministry, or achievements. May we never become a stumbling block to others, but faithfully proclaim the gospel of salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.
