Last week, we took a closer look at Genesis 15:1 , if you didn’t get an opportunity to listen to that lecture, I’ll invite you to check out the post below

A Closer Look At Genesis 15: v1, Fear not, Abram, The Implications

Today we continue our study of the 15th chapter of the book of Genesis, and our focus will be verse 5-6,

And he brought him outside and said, “Look toward heaven, and number the stars, if you are able to number them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” And he believed the Lord, and he counted it to him as righteousness.

These two verses give us a very clear and concise picture of what it means to be called righteous by God himself. The presentation below will attempt to explain what all that means.

Scripture References:

Genesis 15:5-6

Hebrews 11:9-10
