Why is Abraham considered the father of all believers?

Answered in 1 source

Abraham is deemed the father of all believers because he exemplified faith in God's promises.

In Romans 4:16-17, Abraham's faith is highlighted as the model for all who believe. His belief in God's promise to him—prior to the law and any physical signs—illustrates the nature of true faith. This positions Abraham as a representative figure for both Jews and Gentiles who believe in Jesus Christ, confirming that salvation through faith is not limited by ethnicity or adherence to the law but is available to all who have faith like Abraham.
