Stcarns.
s. First, I thank my God through Jesus
Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken
of throughout the whole world" Our last
lesson in the Acts found Paul at Rome
preaching Jesus to all who came to him,
but from verses II to 10 of this lesson it
Is evident that he had not as yet been in
Rome when he wrote this cpistlc. He
writes as q bond slave of Jesus Christ, set
apart to proclaim the glad tidngs of God
concerning the Son aud addresses his let
ter to all the beloved of God in Rome, called
saints. BY receiving Jesus we become
saints, He becoming our righteousness, and
this being the case we are therefore to live
ms saints. We are not told how the gospel
was first preached at Rome, but there were
mt this time true believers there to whom
Paul wrosa this great epistle, emphasizing
IN the very beginning of it the great truth
OF the resurrection Verse A.. See how faith
in God gloriies Him and becomes known
abroad to His honor
.. For God il my witness, whom [ serve
with my spirit in the gospel of His Son,
that without ceasing | make mention of
you always in my prayers One of Paul's
