Romans 9 MSG
Manage episode 340574811 series 3009371
Welcome!
Romans 9 is about stumbling against Christ and being saved by His grace.
First, let's talk about what "stumbling against Christ" means. It means that you know the right way to go, but you're going in the wrong direction. You've been taught the truth in Christ—and maybe even experienced it in your own life—but somehow, you've gotten off track and are doing things that don't align with what God wants for you.
So what do we do when this happens? How can we get back on track? Paul says that salvation comes when we choose to believe Jesus died on our behalf and rose again so that we can be forgiven and reconciled with God. It's not something we deserve or work for; it's a gift from God, freely given through faith in Christ alone.
Despite our struggles and setbacks, there's always hope. Jesus made sure of this. We hope that you'll find encouragement in Romans 9.
