#soap # Romans 10 ## Title: I Pledge Allegiance to the King ## Scripture: (Romans 10:9-10) “because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and thus has righteousness and with the mouth one confesses and thus has salvation.” (NET) ## Observation: These words are still the most wonderful promise ever. A Muslim once told me, “How can you believe that Jesus could take on your sins? No one can take on the sins of another.” This isn’t true. Someone can take the penalty for another and stand in the place of punishment. The question is who would do such a thing? Who could pay the price for the sins of the whole world? Only God could do that. Jesus, the King, paid a price He did not owe to save people who did not yet know Him. ## Application: I pledge allegiance to the King. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for loving us.
