The Romans Road to Salvation

 The Romans Road

1. Everyone needs salvation because we have all sinned. We have all done things that are displeasing to God. There is no one who is innocent.

As the Scriptures say, “There is none righteous—not even one. There is none who understands; there is none who seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become useless. There is none who does good, there is not even one.”… For all have sinned; and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:10-12, and 23).

2. The price (or consequence) of sin is death.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6:23).

3. Jesus Christ died for our sins. He paid the price for our death.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8).

4. We receive salvation and eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ.

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; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation…for whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved (Romans 10:9-10, and 13).

5. Salvation through Christ Jesus brings us into a relationship of peace with God.

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1).

Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1).

For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, no death, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:38-39).
