The "Romans Road to Salvation" is a way of explaining the message of salvation found in the book of Romans in the Bible. It is a systematic way of presenting the Gospel, or the good news, of Jesus Christ to someone who is seeking to understand how to be saved.
The Romans Road includes several verses from the book of Romans that explain different aspects of salvation. These verses include:- Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
- Romans 6:23 - "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
- Romans 5:8 - "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
- Romans 10:9-10 - "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved."
- Romans 10:13 - "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
The Romans Road emphasizes that salvation is a free gift from God, given through faith in Jesus Christ, and not based on our own good works or merit. It also emphasizes the importance of confessing Jesus as Lord and calling on his name for salvation.
A Roman's Road Prayer
God, I know that I am a sinner and that the wages of sin are death. I believe that you sent your Son, Jesus Christ, as a payment for my punishment. I declare that Jesus is my Lord and profess my faith for salvation through the death and resurrection of Jesus. Thank you for your grace, forgiveness, peace, and gift of eternal life. Amen!"
