Romans 5:17 (New Living Translation)
17 For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and his gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ.
Isn't this a great verse!! Wow!! All who receive God's wonderful gift will live in triumph over sin!! Isn't that amazing???
What's the catch?
What do I have to do?
What is the monthly payment plan for this "gift"?
Okay, obviously you have to read the small print. Carefully look half way through the verse and you'll see you have to "receive" this gift. In the greek that means "take it" or "claim it".
Great, so what do I have to do to claim my free gift?
Nothing!! TAKE IT!! Pick it up by faith.
