A Recipe For The 1st Time: Romans 1:19-20
since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. [20] For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. [NIV]
Romans 3:23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, [NIV]
Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. [NIV]
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. [NIV]
Romans 10:9-11
That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. [10] For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. [11] As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." [NIV]
Romans 12:1-2
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. [2] Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will. [NIV]
“Live a life that demands an explanation.”
