The Epistle of Paul The Book of Romans series: Learning to be rooted and established in The Cross of Christ
I am ready to preach the Gospel
Romans 1:15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
As Paul continues to mention here from verse 14 that he is a “debtor both to the Greeks and the Barbarians both to the wise and the unwise” but even so being a "debtor" unto Christ Jesus taking his Cross up daily, he mentions here to the church at Rome that with all that he has in him, he is ready to preach the gospel to the church there also.
We all must be willing and to be ready to preach the gospel 1 Corinthians 1:18 tells us it is the power of God, we must be able to tell those that do not have the understanding of Salvation as well as pray for soul's and workers for the harvest as the Lord sends the workers for the end time harvest as our Lord and savior Jesus Christ has commanded (Luke 10:2, Matthew 9:37-38).
We as Saints of God, should never be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, it is by Him that we can enter into the throne room of God!
How can we ever say that we are ashamed of the one who saved us and cleansed us from all unrighteousness, this is something to tell everyone about!
Even in my life I'm very watchful, waiting for every opportunity to tell anyone who will listen to the gospel, which is the preaching of the Cross.
We must be witnesses to the saving knowledge that our Savior has given us and be a living testimony of the Blood that covers a multitude of sins in our lives in front of those that cannot see the Righteous Things of God as well as be edifying to our brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus.
When preaching or spreading the gospel we are truly spreading the good news!
The good news that the Lord God Creator of Heaven and earth, has provided a way for us to return back to Him, and He deserves it doesn't He?
Knowing that, we must realize who the Creator is and who provided us a way back to Himself who is the God of Creation.
Because of sin that entered into the world man is separated from God at birth but because of what Jesus has done for us at the Cross, by faith we can return back to Him and give Him all of the glory, honor, and praise.
Jesus was the perfect sacrifice without spot or blemish, and when the Lord God sees the redeemed (Romans 10:13), He doesn't see our sin but He sees His Son and the Blood that was shed for those who put their complete faith and trust exclusively in Him!
Now that is something to preach about and never be ashamed of, let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
