For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, just as it is written: The righteous will live by faith.

Christianity is a religion of revelation, of knowing.
A category fallacy is the mistake of ascribing the wrong feature to the wrong thing… assigning a property which applies only to another… It is a category fallacy to fault colors for not having a smell, universals located at only one place, and God for not being an empirical entity [visible to the senses]. God, if he exists at all, is by definition (in Orthodox Christianity) an infinite Spirit. It is not part of the nature of a spirit to be visible empirically as a material object would be. It is a category fallacy to ascribe sensory qualities to God or fault him for not being a visible object!
The creature may want to exercise humility in recognizing that the Creator, if he exists, may be quite different in nature than his creation and may have his own sovereign plans for revealing himself.
Belief in the God of Christian theism explains well the vast realities of the human experience. Those realities extend to the universe (it’s existence, order and uniformity), abstract entities (numbers, propositions, and the laws of logic), ethical principles (universal and objective moral values), human beings (their existence, consciousness, and rationality), and religious phenomena (the miraculous events of Christianity). thus while God’s existence can’t actually be seen his existence can be inferred as an explanation for the necessary realities of life.
Christianity is a religion of revelation. In this sense, revelation refers to the self-disclosure of God. Christianity proclaims that God has revealed himself unmistakably and meaningfully to mankind in two distinct ways, in his general revelation in nature and conscience, and in his special revelation in Scripture and ultimately in Jesus Christ.

Greeting the Saints in Rome
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;
10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Loving the unlovable
Believers already hold the key to overcoming worldly strife.
As believers, we know that the commandment we have been charged with is simply to love. It sounds so simple, and yet when we consider the state of the world and the social environment in which we live, we see what appear to be unlovable people everywhere. There is rumor and inuendo prevalent through personal social media, criticism and…

Why We Cannot Agree with the World
Today's inspiration focuses on our stance as Christians. I hope it inspires you!
#life #faith #worldevents #agree #confusion #randomnestfamily #liveinspired
I thank God for my salvation and my Christian faith. Thank you, Jesus, that you are preparing a place for us! But who are we that God loves us? No seriously! What makes us worthy of God’s love? In today’s live inspired message, we look at “Why We Cannot Agree with the World.”
Absolutely nothing.
Everything that I own belongs to God. The praise that I am able to give God is only because He has…

The Progressiveness of Romans 1 to 3
ROMANS 1 is about the wickedness of the world before the law, during Noah, Abram and Lot’s time. It makes you realise why God destroyed not only Sodom and Gomorrha, but also the entire world with the flood.
Romans 1:18-32 – Authorised Version
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

ROMANS S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 1
Friday, 1/20/23
I hope you don't mind this "no notice" continuing into the next book following Acts, but then again, it seemed the next "logical" (or Spirit led?), step, since we ended with Paul in Rome (though Romans was written before he got there...)
SCRIPTURE:
This letter is from Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus, chosen by God to be an apostle and sent out to preach His Good News.
~ Romans 1:1
OBSERVATION:
Paul:
...a slave - of Christ... first...
...chosen - by God... specifically - from many...
...sent - by God... not on a journey of his, Paul's, own initiative...
...to be - an apostle (someone "...specifically chosen by Jesus to spread the gospel after his death and resurrection)...
...to preach - HIS Good News...
Because...???
He was obedient... no matter the personal cost
...and changed by his encounter with Jesus...
What about me?
APPLICATION:
Obedience changes everything... everything...
PRAYER:
(Using verse 25...)
Creator Father God... Forgive when I've traded the truth about You for lies I tell myself or listen to from the enemy... for those times I worshiped and served things instead of You... only You are worthy of eternal praise! Amen.
For Him... for you... for yours... expectantly and joyfully...

What is being a Reprobate?
The 'new' reprobate.
By Elaine Januay 7, 2022, Saturday, 6:32 a.m.
I want to thank my friend Elaine for approaching this issue. And she did it early in the morning and on The Sabbath. Her Sabbath rest came from drawing on Scripture. God’s Words are likened to iron sharpening iron. If we deny His words, we deny Him.
I was shopping at the grocery store, and I came upon this end-cap display. I did a double take. Look…

God and the Human Condition (Romans 1:18-25)
Change is actually more like an exchange of one thing for another. Something is taken out, then replaced with something different.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and injustice of those who by their injustice suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them because God has made it plain to them. Ever since the creation of the world God’s eternal power and divine nature, invisible though they are, have been seen and understood through the things God has made.
So they…

Daily Devotional: Romans 1:7-17
Daily Devotional: Romans 1:7-17
Paul addresses his letter to all who are beloved of God in Rome, called as saints. He does not address it to all those who love God or who are currently in a church group. So, later, when he mentions that he wants to come to them to preach the gospel and see evangelistic fruit among them (v. 13), we see Paul’s theology come out. Those who come to love God are first beloved of God—even before…
