The Scripture makes it very clear that as we focus on purity we experience power from above. Paul stressed this in his final letter to his understudy Timothy. “Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter [i.e., “iniquity”], he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work” (2Ti 2:21). How? The process is simple: God the Father works through the Son. The Son works through the Holy Spirit. The Spirit works through the Word. The Word works through the believer. The believer works through living faith.

Every member of the human race is in prison until Christ sets them free. There are five steps that will walk us through Romans. Rom 1:16-17 (Theme of book) Rom 1:3-6 The gospel is all about Jesus Christ. The purpose of the cross was to die for our sins so He could open up salvation for everyone who believes. The just shall live by faith: Hab 2:4 Rom 1:17 Gal 3:11 Heb 10:38 Faith is on the move, it does not stand still. Rom 4:12 We are making progress as we grow in grace. Everything you desire in this life is available to you. What you think He can’t do, He can do.
Five Steps: 1. God reveals His righteousness by His wrath/judgment against sin (ch 1-3) 2. God reveals His righteousness by saving sinners (ch. 4-5) 3. He provides the power of spirituality by giving those who believe His Spirit (ch 6-8) 4. The God who saves also secures (ch 9-11) 5. God calls us to serve Him (ch 12-16)
Rom 1:18 Rom 3:21-23 Rom 4:1-3 Rom 5:1-2 Rom 6:12-13 Rom 8:1-4 Rom 10:1-11 Rom 12:1-2 Rom 14:17
