Romans 4:21

He just thought, “I know that God will do whatever he promised.”

Plain English Version

In The King James Version

In Context

20He didn’t start thinking, “Maybe God will not keep his promise after all.” No, he kept on believing, and that made him strong, so that he could tell everyone that God is good.

22So God said to Abraham, “Now I’m saying you are properly good, like you never did anything wrong”

You see, God showed us that he loves us. He sent Jesus Christ, our leader, to die for us.
