we should not misrepresent the scripture.

in Genesis 26:5 Abraham was not credited with righteousness for keeping the word God had spoken to him: it was declared that Abraham's seed would be blessed, and through his seed all the nations would be blessed, because of this.

Abraham believed God, and for this, God credited to Abraham as righteousness. Genesis 15:6, several chapters previous, when the very same blessing was promised to him.

Actually Abram believed God WAY before Gen 15:6. This was God reminding Abram of His word. And it's not where we see the promise a few chapters back in Genesis.

Stephen clues us in~~~

Acts 7:2~~New American Standard Bible
And he said, "Hear me, brethren and fathers! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,

Gen 11~~28Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans.(Mesopotamia) 29
Abram and Nahor took wives for themselves. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah and Iscah.

Abram had been save for a LOT of years before he started WALKING the way he should have.......in Gen 12 and 15:6.

there is a lot of nonsense that has been going on here lately that needs to stop.
if there is to be nonsense, i say we introduce nonsense of an entirely different sort.

are the law keepers bringing out their own versions of parables now?

and if so, are they actually called alegoribles?

didn't Howard get a dui or something?
I think that it was actually grape juice and not wine that Howard was imbibing.
