Walking The Roman's Road
Acts 20:24 (NLT) 24  But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.
Confession Of Faith: I am not moved by what I see or by what I feel. I am moved by what I believe. I believe the WORD of God The victory is mine! - I have it Now!I can see it through the eyes of my faith
Romans Road
Romans 10:13 NKJV
For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
Close to sixty years after Jesus’ crucifixion, the Apostle Paul wrote a letter to guide and encourage the Christians in Rome (Morgan Hill).
According to many scholars, this letter— which we know as the book of Romans— offers the clearest presentation of Christian doctrine-teaching in the entire Bible. In this book, Paul gives us a handful of verses that outline the concept of sin and salvation.
Like a how-to guide for understanding Christianity, these verses work together to illustrate the basics of the gospel message and explain what we need to do to be saved. Let's look at the scripture:
Romans 3:23 NKJV
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Romans 3: 23— For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.
Romans 6:23 NKJV
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6: 23— For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 5:8 NKJV
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5: 8— But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.
Romans 10:9–10 NKJV
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 10: 9-10— If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.
Romans 10:13 NKJV
For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
Romans 10: 13— For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
These verses, taken together, are often referred to as the Romans Road to salvation.
The Romans Road is a great tool to use when you’re in a conversation about faith with someone who doesn’t understand Christianity or who questions the need for Jesus.
By simply presenting each verse, you can let Paul do the talking for you.
The Road to Salvation Think of the individual Romans Road verses as a series of guideposts. Each verse serves as a marker along the road, directing the conversation and keeping it focused on biblical truth.
Start at Guidepost One.
Guidepost One
Romans 3: 23 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.
Paul offers a clear reminder that every living human being has sinned. Not one of us can live up to God’s standard of holiness through our own effort. By its very nature, the sin that exists in your life and mine separates us from God.
Guidepost Two
Romans 6: 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
Sin carries a hefty penalty: death. Not only is physical death the result of sin, but eternal death, as well.
When you die without knowing Jesus, you die to the possibility of spending eternity with God in heaven.
But, the good news of the gospel is that God has given us a way to conquer death.
He loves you and me so much that he sent his son to pay the wages of our sin.
Guidepost Three
Romans 5: 8 But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.
God didn’t wait for you and me to clean up our
act.
While we were still steeped in sin, he provided a way for us to be brought into a right relationship with him. He sent his son to die in our place.
Three days after Jesus was crucified, he rose from the grave. His death and resurrection are the lynchpin of the Christian faith.
Guidepost Four
Romans 10: 9-10
Romans 10:9–10 NKJV
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.
All you have to do to accept the gift of salvation is Believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God and confess that belief with your mouth.
In other words, ask him to come into your life,forgive you and be your Lord.
When you accept Jesus as your savior, you can know that your sins have been forgiven and that you will go to heaven when you die.
Guidepost Five— Romans 10: 13 For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Romans 10:13 NKJV
For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
No matter who you are or what you’ve done (or not done) in the past, God’s promises are for you.
If you understand the truths revealed by the five guideposts along the Romans Road,
if you act on them by placing your faith in Jesus, you will receive God’s incredible gift of salvation;
you will experience a level of living in this world that is only possible when you are under the umbrella of his blessing;
and you will be able to face the rest of your days knowing that your eternity in heaven is secure.
