The Romans Project (Part Two)

(11:05a.m.6/1/10)

We are God's Own, inwardly,
Salvation is matter of the heart!
For by the Spirit, His praise is made sure,
From whence we shall not depart!
(Rom. 2:29)

(11:03a.m.6/2/10)

How poorly now we understand
This gift so freely given,
And yet by grace through Jesus Christ
We stand secure in heaven!

A propitiation by His blood
Received by faith to show
The righteousness of God alone,
His forbearance now to know.

For He is just and Justifier
Of the one who has faith in Jesus.
The law of faith is what we trust,
And that is how God See's us!

Since God Is One - Who will justify
By faith, through faith, for all.
We do not overthrow by faith,
But now uphold the law!

(Rom.3:2 "....entrusted with the oracles of God." Living oracles- life giving words; not simply words to live by but words that Give Life!)

While contemplating these words given to the apostle Paul, the words given to Philip P. Bliss, 1838-1876, came to mind. "Sing them over again to me, Wonderful words of life! Let me more of their beauty see, Wonderful words of life! Words of life and beauty, Teach me faith and duty! Beautiful words! wonderful words! Wonderful words of life! Beautiful words! wonderful words! Wonderful words of life!

This song can be found in Hymns of Grace and Glory, by Life Line Publications, Page 216.
