That's right. Abraham had faith before the circumcision like I had faith before my baptism. I was baptized because of my faith. If you received you faith because of baptism then something was wrong.
That said, if Abraham refused to be circumcised what would of been the outcome? What would happen if Abraham wouldn't of taught and passed on the knowledge of being circumcised? Wouldn't the covenant be broken by man?
Please don't encourage others to not receive God's new covenant.
