Paul, an example of a Faithful Believer: Romans 1:13-15

In this passage of Romans, Paul is telling the church how and why he is so eager to visit them. Paul had a readiness to preach the gospel. We can have this same readiness and eagerness to spread our faith. This passage shows three attributes of a ready witness.

1. We can be a faithful witness to Christ by being eager to evangelize.
a. Paul planned to evangelize despite being hindered.
b. Paul planned to evangelize because he knew that people would accept Christ.

2. We can be a faithful witness to Christ by being eager to serve.
a. We are called to serve the Educated
b. We are called to serve the Uneducated
c. We are called to serve the Wise
d. We are called to serve the Unwise
- As Christians we are to be willing servants of Christ which means that we will love and serve ALL types of people.

3. We can be a faithful witness to Christ by being eager to preach.
- We do not have to be apostles, prophets, or even pastors to preach the Gospel. We preach the Gospel by teaching people the Word and by living by His precepts.
