June 30 / Romans 11:1-10
Romans 11:1-10 Insight…??!! Last week I posted a brief item on predestination, admitting that I knew little about the topic. That post was in reference to Romans 8:29:30, For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many …
June 29 / Romans 10:14-21
Romans 10:14-21 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? (vv. 14-15a) These words strike me every …
June 28 / Romans 9:30-10:13
Romans 9:30-10:13 But the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) “or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth …
June 27 / Romans 9:14-29
Romans 9:14-29 But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me like this?” (v. 20) I feel like Paul is channeling Job here: Then the Lord answered Job out of the storm and said, “Now gird up your loins like …
June 26 / Romans 9:1-13
Romans 9:1-13 They are Israelites, and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises. To them belong the patriarchs, and from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen. (vv. 4-5) To the longer listing …
June 25 / Romans 8:31-39
Romans 8:31-39 Today – one of my all-time favorite Bible sections! How can it not be one of everyone’s favorite Bible sections??!! Look at some of these questions! If God is for us, who can be against us? Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? Who is to condemn? Who shall separate us from …
June 24 / Romans 8:18-30
Romans 8:18-30 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. (vv. 20-21) I’ve been reading the book, Heaven, by Randy …
June 23 / Romans 8:1-17
Romans 8:1-17 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is …
June 22 / Romans 7:13-25
Romans 7:13-25 Paul’s section today hits home for me. His thoughts that I read today sound a lot like addiction – not necessarily alcohol or drug or sex addictions to which (I trust) most of us cannot really relate, but to other common addictions “out there”, like gambling, pornography, computer games – even everyday behaviors …
