Scriptures

New Living Translation (NLT)

Acts 28
³¹ boldly proclaiming the Kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ. And no one tried to stop him.
Romans 1
¹ This letter is from Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus, chosen by God to be an apostle and sent out to preach his Good News.
² God promised this Good News long ago through his prophets in the holy Scriptures.
³ The Good News is about his Son. In his earthly life he was born into King David’s family line,
⁴ and he was shown to be the Son of God when he was raised from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.
⁵ Through Christ, God has given us the privilege and authority as apostles to tell Gentiles everywhere what God has done for them, so that they will believe and obey him, bringing glory to his name.
⁶ And you are included among those Gentiles who have been called to belong to Jesus Christ.
⁷ I am writing to all of you in Rome who are loved by God and are called to be his own holy people. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.
⁸ Let me say first that I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith in him is being talked about all over the world.
⁹ God knows how often I pray for you. Day and night I bring you and your needs in prayer to God, whom I serve with all my heart by spreading the Good News about his Son.
¹⁰ One of the things I always pray for is the opportunity, God willing, to come at last to see you.
