Romans 10:8–17
10:8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart;” that is, the word of faith which we preach:
10:9 that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10:10 For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.
10:11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”
10:12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.
10:13 For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
10:14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?
10:15 And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!”
10:16 But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”
10:17 So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
