Verse of the Day (July 17, 2020) #BMSeminary – {The power of God} The English words dynamite and dynamo are derived from the word “power.” If Paul were writing today he would probably speak of atomic power. The gospel is so powerful that it takes people all the way into heaven. {Salvation} This is past (cf. Luke 7:50; Rom. 1–3); present (cf. Rom. 6:3–11), and future (cf. 2 Cor. 4:16–5:10; Rom. 8:16–25). Paul will develop the full breadth of this truth throughout this epistle. {Every one that believeth} The basis of salvation is God’s gracious provision (Rom. 3:23–26). But the only means by which the sinner can appropriate this gift is faith (10:9–17). The gospel is the essential content of that faith. This is why Paul is so burdened to preach Christ to the world.
