Bible Verses About Abraham

Yeshua said to him, “Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.

They answered him, “We are Abraham’s seed, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, ‘You will be made free’?”

Yeshua answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.

A bondservant doesn’t live in the house forever. A son remains forever.

If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

I know that you are Abraham’s seed, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.

I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have seen with your father.”

They answered him, “Our father is Abraham.” Yeshua said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.

But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham didn’t do this.

Then the Judeans said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, ‘If a man keeps my word, he will never taste of death.’

Are you greater than our father, Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?”

Yeshua answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is our God.

You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, ‘I don’t know him,’ I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.

Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad.”

The Judeans therefore said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?”

Yeshua said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM. ”

Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Yeshua was hidden, and went out of the temple, having gone through their midst, and so passed by.

He said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,

and said to him, ‘Get out of your land, and from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’

Then he came out of the land of the Kasdim, and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land, where you are now living.

What then will we say that Abraham, our forefather, has found according to the flesh?

For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God.

For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”

Now to him who works, the reward is not counted as grace, but as something owed.

But to him who doesn’t work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness.
