Romans 10 - The Way Of Salvation

about 1 hour ago
Summary

In his message, Kenny emphasizes the importance of God's Word and the way of salvation as revealed in Romans 10:12-21. He highlights that salvation is available to everyone who calls on the name of the Lord, stressing the necessity of belief and the role of teachers in sharing the glad tidings. Kenny outlines four vital questions posed by Paul regarding how people can call upon the Lord if they have not believed, heard, or had someone to preach to them. He explains that God is the initiator of salvation, sending His Son as the ultimate messenger, and continues to send others to share the gospel. The message of salvation is not just about hearing words but requires a deeper understanding and acceptance of the living Word of God. Kenny also addresses the tragic reality that many, including Israel, have rejected this message, yet God's mercy remains, as He continues to reach out to them. Ultimately, he encourages believers to recognize their role as ambassadors of Christ, tasked with sharing the message of salvation with the world.

Romans 10:12-21

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. 18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. 19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. 20 But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. 21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.

Isaiah 53:1

1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
