Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness

Gal 3:6

⁶ So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”

Gen 15:6

⁶ Abram believed the Lord, and he credited it to him as righteousness.

Rom 4:3

⁵ However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness. ⁶ David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

⁷ “Blessed are those
    whose transgressions are forgiven,
    whose sins are covered.

⁸ Blessed is the one
    whose sin the Lord will never count against them.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)    Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness

2)    To the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness.

3)    Blessed are those
    whose transgressions are forgiven,
    whose sins are covered

Blessed is the one
    whose sin the Lord will never count against them.
