Basics Pt.3- THE SALVATION OF ROMANS 10:9,10

“For God so loved the world” because “God is love” is absolute in the word of God to the believer. So is “Jacob have I loved but Esau I hated”. And these are not the mutually exclusives some may think they are. Cain and Abel in Gen.4, and Jacob and Esau as referred to in Rom.9, make it abundantly clear that God has loving fellowship only with those who come to Him by faith. And has always rejected righteousness by works. God is love. So it’s not love vs hate. Nor is it naughty vs nice. It’s love for God vs rejection of Him and faith vs works.

And Martin Luther and John Calvin brought it to her daughters the Protestants.  That’s why I’m asking the question, is there any scriptural foundation for the Christian to…

In Heb.9:15 we read that Jesus “is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.” And in 2 Cor.5:21 we read “For he hath made him be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” So the question is since for those who have believed in Jesus all sin has been forgiven and cleansed, and the transgressions under the law were all redeemed by the death of Christ, and we are righteous in Christ, why do…
