After sharing a special Holy Week Message, we now continue our series about Current Day Israel using Romans 9-11 as our reference. Romans 10 is entitled "Israel Rejects Christ." This is the current day scenario in Israel including many of the Jewish People worldwide.
We learned in our last message that many Jewish People are seeking righteousness by attempting to keep the Law. No one is able to obey all of The Law. Paul in Romans 10:9-12 presents, in detail, how both Jew and Gentile can attain righteousness and be saved, "That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes to righteousness and with the mouth confession is made to salvation. For the Scripture says, 'whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.' For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek."
The path to Salvation is all about believing and then confessing this belief. What exactly does Jehovah God desire for us to believe? He desires for us to believe without question that Jesus is Lord and the True Son Of God! God also desires for us to believe that He sent Jesus to earth to die on a cross forgiving all our sins. Romans 10:9 also says we should believe "God Raised Jesus From The Dead."
Now, once we believe, then Jehovah God desires for us to share this belief with other people. Believe And Confess . . . This Is God's Path To Salvation! Romans 10:13 also brings forth a very important message. Jehovah God desires for all people to be saved - Jews and Gentiles, "For whoever calls upon The Name of The Lord shall be saved." Hallelujah!
We trust this message has clearly illustrated "The Path To Salvation." Romans 10:9-13 has been called "The Roman Road To Salvation." Why then are such a small percentage of God's Chosen People saved? Stay Tuned!
Blessings!
