1. AMAZED

3. Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God –  the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures  regarding his Son, who as to his earthly life was a descendant of David,  and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord Romans 1:1-4

4. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.  For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed – a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: ‘The righteous will live by faith.’ Romans 1:16-17

5. This righteousness is given through faith in  Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus Romans 3:22-24

6. Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus … Romans 8:1

7. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit …
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God Romans 8:9-17

8. For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all. Romans 11:32

10. Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God
Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out! ‘Who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been his counsellor?’ ‘Who has ever given to God, that God should repay them?’ For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be the glory for ever! Amen.
Romans 11:33-36

12. Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God – this is your true and proper worship.
Romans 12:1
