Romans 15:4 For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. I thought that this was the perfect verse on which to end our journey through Romans. Paul’s teaching came from the Old Testament along with his personal… Continue reading Word of Hope
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. When we read of Moses and his encounter with God, we are told that he had to veil… Continue reading Transformed
Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. In times of grief, sadness, anxiety and confusion we often find ourselves at a loss when it comes to prayer.… Continue reading Words Won’t Come
Romans 6:9 We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. When I think of all the various customs and cultures of the world with their deities, mythical and otherwise, I am so glad that I serve the living God. The One who died… Continue reading Living Free
Romans 6:1 What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? What a question. Unfortunately, over the years I have heard people say that you don’t have to worry about what you do because God has already forgiven you, (mainly not Christian people, thankfully). I have wondered why they… Continue reading New Creation
Romans 5:10 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. We are either for God or against God. In our sinful state we are against God, therefore, we are enemies of God.… Continue reading Reconciled
Romans 5:8 But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. A Sunday School prize that I received when I about 7 or 8 years old was a picture frame with this verse on it, (the King James version of course). I always loved the picture… Continue reading Amazing Love
Romans 5:2 Through Him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope in the glory of God. This is such a tremendous verse, showing us the height and depth of our faith. From the moment we acknowledged our sin and reached out to God… Continue reading Amazing Grace
Romans 2:6,7 He will render to each one according to his works: to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, he will give eternal life. You cannot ‘work’ your way into heaven; salvation is a gift and is obtain by faith alone. Works are the product of our faith,… Continue reading Gold or Straw?
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. Shame is a terrible thing to feel. It can take away hope and joy and can cause us to want to hide away.… Continue reading Unashamed
