It is a simple yet powerful method of explaining why we need salvation, how God provided salvation, how we can receive salvation, and what are the results of salvation.<\/p><p><strong>The first verse<\/strong>\u00a0on the Romans Road to salvation is Romans 3:23, \u201cFor all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.\u201d We have all sinned. We have all done things that are displeasing to God. There is no one who is innocent. Romans 3:10-18 gives a detailed picture of what sin looks like in our lives.<\/p><p><strong>The second Scripture<\/strong>\u00a0on the Romans Road to salvation, Romans 6:23, teaches us about the consequences of sin \u2013 \u201cFor the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.\u201d The punishment that we have earned for our sins is death. Not just physical death, but eternal death!<\/p><p><strong>The third verse<\/strong>\u00a0on the Romans road to salvation picks up where Romans 6:23 left off, \u201cbut the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.\u201d Romans 5:8 declares, \u201cBut God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.\u201d Jesus Christ died for us! Jesus\u2019 death paid for the price of our sins. Jesus\u2019 resurrection proves that God accepted Jesus\u2019 death as the payment for our sins.<\/p><p><strong>The fourth stop<\/strong>\u00a0on the Romans road to salvation is Romans 10:9, \u201cthat if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.\u201d Because of Jesus\u2019 death on our behalf, all we have to do is believe in Him, trusting His death as the payment for our sins \u2013 and we will be saved! Romans 10:13 says it again, \u201cfor everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.\u201d Jesus died to pay the penalty for our sins and rescue us from eternal death. Salvation, the forgiveness of sins, is available to anyone who will trust in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.<\/p><p><strong>The final aspect<\/strong>\u00a0of the Romans road to salvation is the results of salvation. Romans 5:1 has this wonderful message, \u201cTherefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.\u201d Through Jesus Christ we can have a relationship of peace with God. Romans 8:1 teaches us, \u201cTherefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.\u201d Because of Jesus\u2019 death on our behalf, we will never be condemned for our sins. Finally, we have this precious promise of God from Romans 8:38-39, \u201cFor I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Would you like to follow<\/strong>\u00a0the Romans road to salvation? If so, here is a simple prayer you can pray to God. Saying this prayer is a way to declare to God that you are relying on Jesus Christ for your salvation. The words themselves will not save you. Only faith in Jesus Christ can provide salvation! \u201cGod, I know that I have sinned against you and am deserving of punishment. But Jesus Christ took the punishment that I deserve so that through faith in Him I could be forgiven. With your help, I turn away from my sin and place my trust in You for salvation. Thank You for Your wonderful grace and forgiveness \u2013 the gift of eternal life! Amen!\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Romans Road to salvation is a way of explaining the good news of salvation using verses from the Book of Romans.
