Romans 10:5-13
Pastor Blaine continues through Romans 10:5–13, explaining that salvation has always been based on faith rather than our ability to earn righteousness through good works. The law reveals God’s holiness and exposes our need for a Savior, while the gospel shows that salvation is not hidden, complicated, or something we have to achieve—it is found in Jesus Christ. Blaine explains that genuine belief is more than simply knowing facts about Jesus; it means trusting Him with our whole lives, and that true faith naturally changes the way we live. He closes by distinguishing between the faith that brings us into relationship with Christ and the daily faith of following Him: we know who God is, we don’t know what tomorrow holds, and because we know God, we can trust Him with our future.
