Romans 4:10-12

New Century Version

¹⁰ So how did this happen? Did God accept Abraham before or after he was circumcised? It was before his circumcision. ¹¹ Abraham was circumcised to show that he was right with God through faith before he was circumcised. So Abraham is the father of all those who believe but are not circumcised; he is the father of all believers who are accepted as being right with God. ¹² And Abraham is also the father of those who have been circumcised and who live following the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.
