Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:2 - This gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:3 - concerning his Son who was a descendant of David with reference to the flesh,

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:9 - For God, whom I serve in my spirit by preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness that I continually remember you

Unbelief and Its Consequences

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:18 - For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people who suppress the truth by their unrighteousness,
