Romans:1:8-17
riversident@Romans:1:8 @ First of all I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is spoken of through all the world.
riversident@Romans:1:9 @ For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, is my witness how unceasingly I make mention of you, always in my prayers
riversident@Romans:1:10 @ asking if I may somehow at some time by the will of God find the way open to come to you.
riversident@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you that I may impart to you some spiritual gift of grace in order that you may be strengthened,
riversident@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that I may be encouraged with you and by you through our mutual faith, yours and mine.
riversident@Romans:1:13 @ I am not willing that you should be ignorant, brethren, that often I have purposed to come to you (note:)though until now I have been hindered(:note), in order that I might have some fruit among you as among the other Gentiles.
riversident@Romans:1:14 @ I am a debtor to Greeks and to Barbarians, to wise men and to unthinking men;
riversident@Romans:1:15 @ so, for my part, I am eager to tell the good news also to you in Rome.
riversident@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the good news. It is the power of God for salvation to every one who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
riversident@Romans:1:17 @ For a righteousness of God is revealed in it from faith to faith, as it is written, "He who is righteous by faith shall live."
