New Testament Bible Meditation- April 26 - Text & Audio

Romans Chapter 1 verses 16 to 32 

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
For in it is revealed God's righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, "But the righteous shall live by faith."
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse.
Because, knowing God, they didn't glorify him as God, neither gave thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.
Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.
Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers, backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.

Those were verses 16 to 32 from Romans Chapter 1

Insight- The Apostle Paul was not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for he was convinced that it was the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes in the sin atoning work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Men and women have become worshipers of creation rather than the Creator and are involved in all kinds of sins and unrighteousness thereby bringing God's wrath and eternal punishment on themselves.

Question- Do you believe that the gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God for salvation for all mankind? Are you ashamed of the gospel? Think about it.

Prayer- Dear Father in Heaven, grant me grace not to be ashamed of the gospel of Christ and worship the Creator and be thankful to him at all times. In Jesus' name. Amen.
