Included!

For Thursday, July 6, 2023:

Romans 1:6 NLT, Paul, writing to the believers in Rome: “You are included among those Gentiles who have been called to belong to Jesus Christ.”

Paul restates a key theological point. The Messiah was to come through the Jewish people, but his mission was to redeem ALL mankind. Jesus’ mission was successful and complete. Now any believer – even those in Rome – who puts their faith in Jesus, belongs to Jesus and is a part of the holy family. In the next life, we’ll join Jesus and his Father in eternity!

'Include’ is a powerful word. Everyone wants to be included. “Three of us are going to the event – there’s room in the car for a fourth, and we’d like to include you!” How could you refuse, especially knowing that the destination is God’s Kingdom and that your decision has eternal ramifications?

Believers are all included in the forever kingdom!
