Start here if you want a firm footing before walking the Romans Road.
Five verses from Romans that move from our need to God's gift—and your response.
We all need grace—no one meets God's standard alone.
Read step 1 →“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
Sin separates us from God—a wage we cannot pay ourselves.
Read step 2 →“For the wages of sin is death…”
Jesus took our place while we were still far from God.
Read step 3 →“But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
Salvation is a free gift through Jesus—not something we earn.
Read step 4 →“…but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Receive salvation by trusting Jesus as Lord and risen Savior.
Read step 5 →“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.”
When you are ready, pray—acknowledging your need, trusting Christ's work, and inviting Him as Lord.
