Romans​: Readings and the Thoughts that followed

Romans 1:16 ~ "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek."
  • ​Christians have the best news of all time, but many are afraid of sharing it because...
    • ​We don't want to offend
    • We know we aren't living like we believe it.
    • We are shy/scared
    • ​And sadly, because we're too busy and forget.
  • ​​Take your pick of excuses, and they still won't outweigh the importance of sharing the gospel. 3/13/14
Picture
Romans 1:18 ~ "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth."
  • God's existence is written all over everything we see.  
  • The amount of faith required to believe in the absence of God is no less than the amount of faith to believe in God.
  • It really comes down to where you place your faith. ​4/11/18
Picture
Romans 3:10 ~ "as it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one"
  • It's why we need Jesus, because we couldn't and can't be righteous alone.
  • Only through Jesus to we become righteous. 5/2/18
Picture
Romans 3:23 ~ " for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"​
  • We may not like this being pointed out to us, but the truth can't be avoided. 
  • Not once have I had to teach my child to do wrong.  Why? Because ALL sin and fall short. 1/30/18
Picture
Romans 5:1 ~ "Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
  • The good things you do for God are not what saves you.
  • Your faith in Jesus Christ saves you, and because of what jesus did for you it compels you to work for Him.
  • But, don't be confused, your good works for the kingdom of God are RESULTS of your salvation, they are not what caused you to be saved. 3/11/18
Picture
Romans 5:8 ~ "God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
  • There is no test or list of work requirements to earn God's love.
  • He already loves us, even while we are in the worst part of our existence. 2/23/18
Picture
Romans 5:12 ~ "Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned"
  • ​Adam chose himself over God, in doing so he ensured the "sin-gene" would be passed to each of his descendants...  you and me.
  • We sin, we die, we need help.
  • ​God sent Jesus, help given, death conquered, sin's debt has been paid... all by Him. 3/9/18
Picture
Romans 6:23 ~ " For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
  • We have earned and deserve death, but with the greatest display of mercy, Jesus stepped in and offers us life. 2/15/18
Romans 8:1 ~ "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."
  • Jesus = Life. 
  • Jesus takes your sin and covers it... COMPLETELY. 
  • If you are in Jesus you are no longer condemned, but confirmed. 3/15/18
Picture
Romans 8:28 ~ "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." 
  • ​The key is how you understand "good."  
  • This verse is not about wealth, health, and prosperity.  Rather, it is all about God and HIS plan for you.  
  • Although the plan may not seem good at that exact moment, trust Him, and know ultimately it is good. 2/19/18

Romans 10:9 ~ "because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
  • I like how this verse doesn't say, "confess Jesus as Savior," or anything similar to that.  
  • Where most people are most concerned with the "get out of hell" part they miss a very important aspect of Christianity.
  • You are accepting Jesus as Lord and He is to be the commander of your life, not simply your fire insurance. 2/14/18​
Romans 10:13 ~ For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
  • It's not complicated... 3/19/18
Picture
Romans 10:17 ~ " So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ."
  • We HAVE to take the gospel to the world.  
  • To sit back is unacceptable, and it is allowing people to die and go into eternity without Jesus as their savior​.
  • If a man dies and is never told about Jesus, and doesn't learn about Him from a miracle that man dies GUILTY of his sins.
  • And we sit back and hope somebody else will do it.  
  • Aren't you glad whoever led you to Jesus didn't sit on the best news in the universe? 
  • "GO TELL" 4/19/18
Picture
Romans 12:1 ~ "I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship."
  • ​We belong to God, and because of that we owe Him our everything, even that which we hold most dear. 2/22/18
Picture
Romans 12:2 ~ " Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
  • Don't choose a path simply because it has the least resistance.
  • Make the choice because it's God's will and therefore the right thing to do. 3/6/18
Picture
Romans 13:1  ~ "Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God."
  • Humble submissiveness, to our rulers and leaders.  It's hard, and we don't like it.
  • BUT, that is one of the many things Jesus taught us by His example.  4/27/18
