Galatians 3:7

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Galatians 3:7. Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

Not this nation or that, as Anglo-Israelites might say; but those that are of faith, these are the children of Abraham. Abraham is the father of the faithful, the believers, and believers are all the children of Abraham. Race has nothing to do with this matter; an end has been put to all that. God is not the God of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles; and here is a new race whose distinction is not that they were born of blood, or of the will of the flesh, or of the will of man, but by the will of God; and this is the token by which they are known, they believe God, and it is accounted to them for righteousness, even as it was accounted to Abraham.
