13For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." 14But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard?[c] And how are they to hear without someone preaching? 15And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" - Romans 10:13-15
Everyone Who Calls on God Will Be Saved
God makes wonderful and spectacular promises throughout the Bible, and one of the greatest promise is that "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved" (verses 13), that is anyone who confesses Jesus as Lord and Savior will received salvation (Romans 10:8-9).
13For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."-(v.13)
Dilemmas in Salvation
Dilemma 1: "How are people to call (in order to be saved) on God if they have not believed", that is how can someone confess their allegiance to God and Jesus Christ, if they don't trust and embrace Him?
14But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed? -(v.14)
Dilemma 2: "How are they to believe in God of whom they have never heard?', that is how can someone trust in God if they don't even know or haven't ever heard of Him?
And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? -(v.14)
Dilemma 3:"How are they to hear without someone preaching?", that is how can someone hear and know God if there's not someone to tell them about Him?
And how are they to hear without someone preaching? -(v.14)
Dilemma 4: "How are they to preach unless they are sent?", that is how can they tell someone about God (preach) if they don't move their little feet and go to the unreach peoples?
15And how are they to preach unless they are sent?-(v.15)
Beautiful Feet
Then Paul states that those who share and preach the good news are so beautiful that their feet are beautiful.
As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" -(v.15)
So FPC, let's not be beautiful the way the world defines beauty, but let us be truly beautiful based on God's definition by taking and preaching the good news.
