Week 33: Monday Discipleship Guide

  • Romans 1:1-6

    Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God, which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy Scriptures, concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh and was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations, including you who are called to belong to Jesus Christ,

  • Romans 1:15-17

    So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

    For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

  • Question: What is the gospel according to Paul?

    Answer:  Jesus Christ accomplishes for us what we could never do, removing our condemnation and granting us His righteousness. Through faith in Him alone, we stand fully accepted before God, and the Holy Spirit then leads us into genuine, joyful obedience.

  • Romans 8:1 (ESV)
    “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
