The Power of God

Name Date

Read the Story

Paul begins his letter by calling himself a servant of Jesus Christ. God called him to be an apostle and to share the Good News. He writes to all in Rome who are loved by God.

Paul thanks God for them, because their faith is known in the whole world. He prays for them always. He wants to visit them so that they can encourage each other by their faith.

Paul says, "For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek."

Paul says God's power can be clearly seen in the world he made. But many people did not thank God. They worshiped things God made instead of God. This makes God sad, because he made us to love him.

“For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.”

The Righteous Shall Live by Faith

Name Date

Read and Think

"Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God." God promised this Good News through his prophets. It is about his Son, who was declared to be the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead.

Paul writes to all in Rome, loved by God and called to be saints. He thanks God because their faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world. He longs to see them, so that he and they may be encouraged by each other's faith.

Paul is not ashamed of the Good News. It is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes. In it God's righteousness is revealed. As it is written, "But the righteous shall live by faith."

God's everlasting power and divinity are clearly seen through the things he made, so people are without excuse. Yet many knew God but did not glorify him or give thanks. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and served created things rather than the Creator. Turning from God led them into many wrong things.

Romans 1 · Grade 5

The Gospel and the Creator

Name Date

Read and Think

Paul introduces himself as a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle and set apart for the Good News of God. God promised this Good News before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures. It concerns his Son, born of the offspring of David according to the flesh, and declared to be the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the dead. Through him Paul received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations.

He writes to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints, with grace and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. He thanks God that their faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world. God is his witness that he mentions them always in his prayers. He longs to see them to impart some spiritual gift, and so that both he and they would be encouraged by each other's faith.

Paul says he is a debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, to the wise and the foolish, so he is eager to preach the Good News in Rome also. "For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek." In it God's righteousness is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, "But the righteous shall live by faith."

Paul explains that God's anger is revealed against ungodliness, because what can be known of God is plain to people. Since the creation of the world his invisible things, his everlasting power and divinity, are clearly seen through the things that are made, so they are without excuse. Knowing God, they did not glorify him as God or give thanks. Professing to be wise, they became foolish. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Turning from God, they fell into many kinds of wrong against God and one another.
