Romans 4:21 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 4:21

And being fully persuaded
He had not only faith, a strong faith, but full assurance of faith:

that what he [God] had promised;
though it was so long ago, and there were so many difficulties in the way;

he was able,
being the Lord God Almighty,

to perform;
so his faith rested upon the power of God, with whom nothing is impossible.

Romans 4:21 In-Context

19 Without losing faith, Abraham, who was nearly 100 years old, took into account his own body, which was as good as dead, and Sarah's womb, which was dead.
20 He didn't hesitate with a lack of faith in God's promise, but he grew strong in faith and gave glory to God.
21 He was fully convinced that God was able to do what he promised.
22 Therefore, it was credited to him as righteousness.
23 But the scripture that says it was credited to him wasn't written only for Abraham's sake.
