"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ".
Today's Bible Verse: Romans 1:16,17 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it written, "The just shall live by faith."
I love the Book of Romans for in it is the blueprint to Salvation. It includes the most systematic presentation of theology found anywhere in Scripture. Romans is the most doctrinal book in the Bible. Because it provides a systemic outline of the essentials of the Christian Faith, and it useful to the mature believer, as it is to someone who wants a short introduction to the Christian Faith.
We as Christians need to have a unabashed passion for taking the Good News of Christ to the ends of the world because: "It is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes." (Romans 1:16)
The word "SALVATION" means to me "DELIVERANCE" or "PRESERVATION". To the Christian the idea is RESCUE from the POWER and DOMINION of SIN. The Christians fervor for sharing the gospel needs to be rooted in its power "TO FREE" or to "RESCUE" people from the tragic consequences of their own sin.
Jesus Christ because of His sacrificial death on the Cross in the place of US as SINNERS is the AUTHOR and PROVIDER of SALVATION. This SPIRITUAL DELIVERANCE is GRACIOUSLY and LOVINGLY offered by GOD to ALL PEOPLE, but ONLY to those who REPENT and TRUST in JESUS will EXPERIENCE its BLESSING.
What exactly are these blessings? SALVATION from the Penalty of our sins, SALVATION from the POWER of our sins, and SALVATION from the PRESENCE of our sins. As a new Christian and getting more and more in His Word during my QUITE TIME with God, I have found three words that we as Christians need to thank God for everyday: (JUSTIFICATION) (2) SANCTIFICATION and (3) GLORIFICATION.
(1) JUSTIFICATION: is the divine act of declaring sinners to be righteous on account of their faith in Jesus. He paid for our sins completely and finally on the Cross, and through faith in Him their sins can be FORGIVEN. Regeneration is closely related to Justification and means the Spirit of God indwells a repentant sinner and IMPARTS ETERNAL LIFE to his or her spiritually DEAD SOUL.
(2) SANCTIFICATION: is the process in which God develops the NEW LIFE of the believer and gradually brings it to PERFECTION.
(3) GLORIFICATION: is the ultimate SALVATION of the WHOLE PERSON and this will occur when we stand FACE to FACE with OUR SAVIOR in His COMING KINGDOM. We then will enjoy COMPLETE FELLOWSHIP with God and SING His PRAISES FOREVER. "Wow" I am looking forward to that GLORIOUS DAY. "Praise God"
I am so AWESTRUCK by the change that has come over me since I took Jesus, by FAITH into my life. My life has taken a complete 180 degree turn and now I want EVERYONE to know about my FRIEND and my SAVIOR Jesus. My prayer each day is that of Isaiah 6:8 "Here I am Lord, Send Me".
Is it any wonder that we as Christians are so excited about the Gospel and its POWER to SAVE. The more we consider that MARVELOUS TRUTH about SALVATION, the more EXCITED we will be and THANKFUL to God and eager to SHARE with OTHERS the HOPE that IS IN IT.
Today's Hymn: "Glorious Day" (verse 1)
One day when Heaven was filled with His praises, One day when sin was as black as could be
Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin, Dwelt among men, my example is He
Word became flesh and the light shined among us, His Glory revealed
Living He loved me, Dying He saved me
Buried He carried my sins far away, Rising He justified freely forever
One day He's Coming, Oh Glorious Day, Oh Glorious Day
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit How we praise You and Thank You, Today and Forever for Your Justification, Your Sanctification and Your Glorification. Help us as Christians to spread the Gospel of the Good News about Jesus, and how its message reveals God's Gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS and Salvation to all believers.
Amen
Today's Biblical Truth: "FAITH in Christ is the KEY to experience every aspect of SALVATION-from First to Last"

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness. Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T", God Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".
Yours in Christ,
