I am not ashamed of the Gospel because it is the power of God

RESUMEN: In this meditation, the speaker focuses on Romans 1:16 and discusses the importance of being prepared and ready to announce the gospel at all times. He notes that Paul was not ashamed of the gospel, despite having suffered shame and persecution for it, and encourages listeners to have the same pride and confidence in the gospel. The speaker also touches on the challenges of living in a culture that often rejects both the doctrine and morality of Christianity.
The culture has moved away from the idea of a personal God, and this disbelief has extended to moral and ethical behavior, making those who still believe in these things seem primitive to others. Christians must maintain their faithfulness to the word of God and not be ashamed of the Gospel. The Gospel is power, and Christians must cultivate an appetite for the power of God to transform lives. The Gospel is salvation, saving people from eternal death and from a life destined to fail. Salvation is for all, and God wants everyone to pass the test and earn an A.
God does not have a quota for salvation, and wants everyone to be saved. Salvation is achieved through faith in Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for our sins. Believing in Jesus and accepting him as our intermediary with God is all that is required for salvation. We should not be intimidated by the idea that God cannot be manifested in one religion, as God has revealed himself through Jesus Christ. We should also love and support the Jewish people, as God still has a plan for them. The Gospel reveals the justice of God, and the just will live by faith.
The Gospel is revealed by faith, which is the currency of the Christian spiritual world. Throughout history, God has always worked with man through faith. It takes courage and strength to live a life of faith, but it is better to believe in something wholeheartedly than to be undecided. Salvation is by faith, and those who confess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior will have eternal life. The speaker invites anyone who wants to affirm their trust in Jesus to come forward and pray. The prayer ends with a blessing for all who leave the place.

Let's go to the word of the Lord, Romans chapter 1, and we're going to get into verse 16. And I think I'm going to be meditating for a while on this book of Romans, the letter of Romans, I don't know how long. Romans is an infinite letter, we could almost say, like the word of the Lord, it has an immense number of topics and possible texts that we can explore, but this morning I felt confirmation in my spirit that I should discuss even a few chapters of this book. . We have done it intermittently through the years, here and there, and I do not necessarily remember, from the notes that I have here in my Bible, surely at some point I have exposed this passage. But I don't remember when, I had no notes about it. But I think it's important because what really interests me the most is going later, but this is the prelude, it's the foundation for the other things that come later.
But God provided it for me in a very providential way to get to where I want to be at some point. And I realize that here, starting at the beginning, is the foundation of what later you will be able to understand better when I preach it, perhaps next Sunday, in fact, I am going to take advantage of the fact that the ministry in English is going to be with we also. I'm being a little mysterious, right? but I'm speaking in code, but we'll see if maybe I'll give you a little bit of progress later in the mediation on the text.
