Christ in Our Place
Romans 5:8- But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 2:24 – ‘For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” as it is written.’ Paul handles so many topics in his introduction to the Romans.

An Amazing Opportunity!
Genesis 5:21-24 -When Enoch had lived 65 years, he fathered Methuselah. Enoch walked with God after he fathered Methuselah 300 years and had other sons and daughters.

A Bold Witness!
John 9:32-33 – “Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.
