Day 15/365 Bible in a Year

Today I am reading Romans 5-6. The first part is called "Faith Brings Joy", you know? Those little title type things they label sections with in your Bible? That's what I mean.


Chapter 5
Key verse, and favorite verse from this chapter is 17.

"For the sin of one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God's wonderful grace and His gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one Man, Jesus Christ."

Adam, the first man on earth drove us all down to the sinful pits of...well...SIN! He and his wife betrayed God's trust. They sinned before there was a law to sin against. Yes, people sinned before there were laws, they just didn't know they were sinning. God gave us laws so we could see how bad off we were into sin...but it just became a common thing to do.

God gaves us grace after that. Grace was something not many found for a while. It was the light in the darkness, the good amongst all the bad. But God then sent His son Jesus to die for us. He died for a bunch of sinners like us. Like it says in verse 7, most people wouldn't even die for a righteous man these days..maybe for a really good guy.... but sinners? Jesus did it. Thank you Lord, you saved us all from Hell. We just need to belive in you the way you believe in us.

Chapter 6
This section is actually titled "Sin's Power is Broken". Already sounds amazing right? THe first paragragh of this chapter gives me chills. Go read Romans 6:1-4 and tell me it doesn't give you chills. It actually tells you what a baptism is and what it stands for.

There are a few verses I ABSOLUTELY love in this chapter.

Verse 6
"We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. WE ARE NO LONGER SLAVES TO SIN."

Verses 10-11
"(10)When He died, He died once to break the power of sin. But now that He lives, He lives for the glory of God.(11)So you should also consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus."

Amen?

And finally verse 22-23
"(22)But now you are free from the power of sin and have become slaves of God. Now you do those things that lead to holiness and result in eternal life. (23)For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord."

Amen.

Crave Life

Today was fun I guess. I studied...studied....studied...and oh yeah! Studied. And I am STILL not done. I went to Crave tonight. It was amazing. A guy names Stephen was saved last night at Great Escape. AMAZING! But now I am going to read Job 3-4. Night guys!

Booyah!

Great News!!

God led me to speak to someone last night about my faith. Actually it was a few someones, but only one actually pulled me aside to talk to it more. He wanted to be saved. So I told him the story of Jesus and his miracles and his teaching and how He died for us. Then I asked him some questions and prayed with him. He accepted Christ right there. It was so amazing. I am so happy God used me like that. Ahhhh!!!! So excited, I want to do this more!
