10• The Romans Road

The End of the Journey

Now that we find ourselves at the foot of the cross of Calvary, let us humbly kneel before Almighty God and remember the things we have learned on our journey. We first learned that we have to believe in God's word, the Bible, which includes the letter to the Romans to guide us down the right path. We learned that we are guilty of sin before God and that we must spend eternity in hell to pay for our sins. Then we learned that we must repent or turn away from a life in sin to truly follow God. In other words, we must make a commitment of our will to God's will for us. Following this, we learned that God Himself, through Jesus Christ, paid for our sins with His own blood. This cleared the way for us to have eternal life. All that's left for us to do at this point is ask for it.

Paul wrote:

"That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation" (Romans 10:9, 10).
