“But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;”
But for us also. It will be credited to us—his people, to whom God will credit righteousness—those of us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. The direct application: believers in Christ inherit Abraham's justification pattern. Faith in God who raised Jesus from the dead becomes the modern form of Abraham's faith. The God who gave life to Abraham's deadened body parallels the God who resurrected Christ.
