Romans|1:1-8 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power,according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ: To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. >Now here's a fancy thing... The Very Most Reverend Apostle and High Bishop to the Gentiles of the Lord Jesus Christ Paul of Tarsus who's name is written in the foundation of the wall of the holy city of Jerusalem out of heaven; Saying; to common Christians in Rome, that they are Also The Called; and called to be Saints even; and that he gave thanks through Jesus Christ for THEM because THIER faith is spoken of throughout the whole world! Gee. Paul said they were called of God. God called them. God himself did the Calling. And they believed God. Paul confessed this, and gave God thanks. Superlatives. Superlatives (plural) are great and big and flashy, but there can be no greater superlative in this age than the faith in Jesus Christ. Amen >Thank you Father for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Thank you for the brethren that are in the world who are also the called of Jesus Christ who put their trust in you. God bless us each and every one. Thank you Father.
