02/22 Romans 15:8-12
For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the Jews on behalf of God’s truth, so that the promises made to the patriarchs might be confirmed 9 and, moreover, that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written: “Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles; I will sing the praises of your name.” 10 Again, it says, “Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.” 11 And again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; let all the peoples extol him.” 12 And again, Isaiah says, “The Root of Jesse will spring up, one who will arise to rule over the nations; in him the Gentiles will hope.”
TOGETHER
We are called to live together as God’s people. Jew and Greek (Gentiles) alike are in Jesus and God’s children. Those that name the name of Jesus as their Lord and Savior have a responsibility to be part of God’s family and love one another.
