All We Need Is Faith

Readings:
Nehemiah 11
Romans 10:1-10

Focus:
Romans 10:9: "If the confession 'Jesus is Lord' is on your lips, and the faith that God raised him from the dead is in your heart, you will find salvation."

This is a pretty simple summary of the whole gospel! It is the main point of the book of Romans. All we need is faith that Jesus Christ is Lord (Leader and Ruler), and that he was raised from the dead. It is quite appropriate to think about so soon after Easter.

If it seems like we're hitting this point again and again, it's because the book of Romans hits this point again and again.

Following rules doesn't free us. Faith does. That's all we need.
