16The A-B-Cs of Salvation are an arrangement of the
Romans Road.
- Introduction Understanding Gods plan of
Salvation is as easy as A-B-C. These verses from
the book of Romans are called the "Roman's
Road." We call this Gods simple plan of
salvation. - I. ALL HAVE SINNED -- Romans 323 all
universality of sin, therefore "you" have sinned.
Sinned "miss the mark." God's mark is
perfection and absolute holiness (Matt.548 1
Pet.116). "Fall short' definition of sin as not
measuring up to God's standard.1. Guilty
sinners -- Yes, we stand guilty before the Judge
of the universe as having violated His holy
precepts and are deserving of the consequences he
hands down. 2. Helpless sinners -- See Romans
310-12 No one is emphatic. "Righteous"
straight, therefore none righteous, but all are
crooked, bent, perverse. Understands
according to Proverbs 1412 man thinks he's O.K.
but he's not. Turned away compare Isaiah
536. Unprofitable useless, unlovely. None
does good can't do good to save ourselves.
This point should be emphasized to those who
think they can merit or work for God's
salvation.3. Condemned sinners -- See Romans
623a Wages what we earn for- our sin
death. Death physical, spiritual (separation
or alienation from God), eternal (Rev.2015
Hell). - II. BUT THE GIFT -- a gift is free, no work
required or not a gift (compare Rom.116). Notice
that the Gift is in Christ. To get the gift
you have to accept Christ. Why Him? Who is He
and What has he done?What does He posses that is
so important? 1. Who Christ Is -- Romans 95
This verse is used to support the deity of Jesus
Christ from the book of Romans and in our
outline. To do so one MUST follow the
punctuation of the NIV translation. The KJV did
not punctuate it the same. For this reason you.
may wish to use John 11 14 in its place.
According to the proper punctuation this verse
would read that Christ" (who is the antecedent
to the word who") is God over all, forever
praised" (NIV).
17- 2. What has Christ done? -- died for us! Romans
56,8 For Greek word huper substitution
he took my place. He did so when we were
Powerless helpless sinners as outline and
verse 310-12 states. Demonstrated showed or
demonstrated. love compare John 316. - 3. What Christ Has -- Romans 623b --the gift of
eternal life. He purchased it with his own blood
and offers it freely as a gift! This leads us to
ask, How do we get the gift? - III. CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD When
emergencies happen in life we know who to call.
911. But when it comes to accepting the gift of
God we must call on Christ Romans 1013. So How
do we call? - 1. Call Confessing -- Romans 109-10 Confess
say the same" as God does about Christ and our
sin.. - 2. Call Believing -- Romans 109-10 Believe
means to trust in and commit to Christ. Some
people miss heaven by 12 inches. The distance
between the head and the hear. They give mental
assent (believe the fact of Jesus) but not the
heart to Jesus. When the heart is given to Jesus
the person is Saved delivered from sin's
penalty, power, and/or presence. - 3. Call Praying -- Romans 1013 Everyone
each person who will. Call by means of prayer. - Conclusion Does this make sense? Then accept
Him right now and be saved
