Nothing can separate us

Can you imagine a love like this?

For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:38-39 ESV

If you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus, what are you waiting for? All you have to do is confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior. He sacrificed Himself for YOU so that YOU can have eternal life in Heaven. Contact me if you have made this decision today. May God bless you and keep you.

Please join me this week in praying for the lost, unengaged, and unreached people. Pray that we spread the Gospel far and wide this week. It's not God's will that any should perish and He wants us to pray for the unsaved and spread the Good News, bringing Him glory and filling Heaven. So, pray without ceasing that He use this ministry to bring in the lost into His merciful and loving arms.

Peace with God

 

Lastly, Step Five on the Romans Road to Salvation tells us that salvation through Jesus Christ brings us into a relationship of peace with God.

Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, 

we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Romans 5:1 ESV

There is therefore now no condemnation 

for those who are in Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:1 ESV

For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Romans 10:13 ESV

Receive salvation

 

Step Four on the Romans Road to Salvation is that we receive salvation and eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ.

It is a 2-step process:

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. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.

Romans 10:9-10 ESV

You must 

1. confess with your mouth AND

2. believe in your heart

Jesus died for you

 

Step Three on the Romans Road to Salvation is that Jesus Christ died for our sins. Remember yesterday we said that "the price of sin is death"? Jesus paid that price for our death.

He was the Perfect Sacrifice. His death paid for the sins of every single one of us.

   I don't remember where I saw this, but it went something like this...Imagine you were on death row. The guards take you out of your cell to walk you down the hall to be executed. Someone who you don't even know steps in and says, "I'm going to take your place." He goes with the guards, is executed, and you go home. How will you live your life? Will you live differently? Or will you return to your old ways, go back to committing crimes? I think (hope) most of us would live differently. Well, that story is true for each one of us. Jesus took our place when we were dead in our sins. Don't let it have been in vain.

 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 

Romans 5:8 ESV

Accept the Free Gift

 

Step Two on the Romans Road to Salvation is to accept God's free gift.

     Once Adam and Eve sinned, death entered the world. Animals were sacrificed to provide clothing and later food. So, the price of sin is death. This includes man's spiritual death; our separation from God. Man literally walked in the Garden with our Creator yet just couldn't refrain from breaking His one command.

     However, God, with His infinite love and mercy, paid that price so that we can live. His gift to us is free, no strings attached. All we have to do is accept it. Will you accept His free gift of salvation?

All of us have eternal life, the only question is, where will you spend eternity? Heaven or hell?

For the wages of sin is death, 

but the free gift of God is 

eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 6:23 ESV

Everyone needs Salvation

 

We're going to take a walk down the Romans Road to Salvation this week. We begin with Step One which states:

Everyone needs salvation because all have sinned.

as it is written:

“None is righteous, no, not one;

no one understands;

no one seeks for God.

All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;

    no one does good,

    not even one.”

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Romans 3:10-12, 23 ESV

The Great Commission

 

God has shown me another outlet where I can share the Gospel! (Hallelujah!) Therefore, I thought it would be a great opportunity to revisit the Romans Road to Salvation. The leaders of our women's group put together a step-by-step outline with relevant Bible verses for us to memorize (hopefully) and share (definitely) whenever the opportunity arises, and so I'm going to be sharing that with you throughout the week.
     What I need from you (please and thank you) is for you to share these verses each day. Post them on social media, or download them to your device so that you can forward them through messaging and/or email.
     Secondly, I need you to pray that this will bring lost sheep into the fold of our loving, merciful Good Shepherd.
 

My Pastor shared part of a sermon he heard...
There are three types of people in the world:

• Those who have heard the Gospel and rejected it.
• Those who have never heard the Gospel.
• Those who have heard the Gospel and accepted it.

Then he said, "Now you're one of only two groups."
Let's make sure that everyone we have contact with is one of only two groups. 

And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20 ESV

Romans Road fifth verse

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Romans 5:1 NKJV

Romans Road fourth verse

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.

Romans 10:9 NKJV

Note: This is a two-fold process.
(Emphasis mine)

Romans Road third verse

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, 

in that while we were still sinners, 

Christ died for us. 

Romans 5:8 NKJV

Romans Road second verse

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

(Romans 6:23 NKJV)

Romans Road first verse

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 

(Romans 3:23 NKJV)

I'll post one Romans Road verse each evening the rest of the week (Wednesday through Sunday) so you can share it. Plus, the pictures might help us memorize the verses.

Romans Road to Salvation

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, (Romans 3:23 NKJV)

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NKJV)

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)

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. (Romans 10:9 NKJV)

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, (Romans 5:1 NKJV)

All of these verses were part of the Bridge illustration from yesterday's post, so once you learn them, you have two ways to present them. I did find a YouTube video of the Romans Road set to music but I hesitate to post it here because it's a kids' song and I'm just not sure how I feel about it, but if you're interested, you can google Romans Road song and it'll probably show up at the top of the list.

Just yesterday my husband shared the gospel with a co-worker. I am in awe of his gift. The two people who I've talked to about how they share the gospel have done so by using something about the person and showing them how to turn that around to committing their lives to Jesus. Tomorrow's video will explain that a little better, hopefully.

I'm going to make images, one for each verse, on YouVersion and share them so that we can share them on social media, so keep an eye open for that.

*********

Please join me this week in praying for the wisdom, courage, and words necessary to share the gospel, utilizing our spiritual gifts, in such a way that will plant seeds and ultimately bear fruit for the Kingdom of God.
