I think the main thing is that whether they were under the law or not under the law, they were weak people who sinned and didn't have it all together, and yet they trusted God, and through faith were accounted as righteousness. And yet even bigger than all of this, they didn't even "receive the promise, God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us." So indeed, in the end, it's all about being under grace!Joel Bruesekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10395847887953875757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37305950.post-58526699331506018312016-03-15T19:07:13.658-05:002016-03-15T19:07:13.658-05:00One interesting, even important, point to note abo...One interesting, even important, point to note about each one of these people commended for their faith is that *every singe one* of them was before the Law. Even Moses is mentioned for the crossing of the Red Sea, which preceded Sinai, but nothing after that. They were all under Grace.Connie Tauntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07770018422247889606noreply@blogger.com
