Featured Roman Road to Salvation

Further the Romans road used by itself does not paint a complete picture of what a gospel presentation should be. Unbelievers need to know that Christianity is not just fire insurance but a walk and a desire for our Lord and Savior. We need to want the gift giver as much or more than the gift.

 

Thanks!

Canadian Calvin Smith, formerly with Creation Ministries International and now with Answers in Genesis Canada, preaches the Roman Road very well. However, he ties it to Young Earth Creationism. In the old days, they used to pass out tracts downtown Indianapolis and the Roman Road was a staple of street corner tracts.

The Savior's invitation:

28 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Mt 11

 

If we take care of what I posted above then it is likely we do not need to lead them in a prayer. Their call to God will come from their own heart with little to no aid from us.

 

Americans are no longer people who have a background of Christianity. Therefore, Americans must be considered as heathen who have no idea about anything Christian. Everything must be explained in detail to them. Americans believe in evolution, the primary force of destruction of Western civilization and culture, and evolution contradicts Genesis. If Genesis is false, then the rest of Scripture is false also by any rule of logic.

 

Yes. The Puritanical/Pharisaical 'Lordship Salvation' teaching immediately comes to mind.

 

Show them what you are by your walk!... Our Christian sermon is how we treat each other and our fellow man... Walk the walk and talk the talk... If we can't talk to each other in a civilized manner on here how can we talk to others?... Jesus did quote a lot of scripture but he was also a Man of action... We nit pick each other on our different beliefs but we need to be up and about our Fathers business... I can tell some one what Jesus taught and open passage and scripture and show them what the Bible says and what I believe but the one thing that is going to draw anyone into any church... IS WHAT I DO!... My belief or any others on here should match their walk... Either that or I'm a Christian in name only!... Our passion should be compassion!... I've had my say... Brother Glen

 

What I learned as the Romans Road, were the Scriptures used to lead me to accept Christ (1962) on the notion that I could know for sure that when I would die, I would go to Heaven.

In brief the references and the one verse from Revelation:
Romans 3:10; Romans 3:23; Romans 5:12; Romans 6:23; Romans 5:8; Romans 10:9; Romans 10:13; Revelation 3:20.

 

No, no, that is not what I was saying. What I was saying is that the American people are total Greeks nowadays and haven't a clue about anything to do with Christianity. So you have to preach to them as Paul preached to the heathen Greeks.

Also, American believe in evolution, which makes Genesis a lie. So I agree with Calvin Smith that the Roman Road begins in Genesis.

 

Romans 3:23; 6:23; 5:8; 10-9-10 present the Gospel well. I have used those verses many times. The Gospel is not reduced to Romans Road but R.R. is a very effective method.

 

As a Christian I came around to believe in literal 6 days in Genesis 1. Had I been presented with that in 1962, it would have resulted in me not becoming a Christian.

 

I was lead to Christ in an independent fundamental Baptist church.

 

I don't trash the Roman Road approach. However, CMI starts with Matthew 13:44 (KJV) Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. It ends with Revelation 21:4 (KJV) And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. The verses used from Romans are: “All have sinned … ” (Romans 3:23)
“ … the wages of sin is death … ” (Romans 6:23a)
“ … the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ … ” (Romans 6:23b)
“ … if you confess Jesus as Lord … you shall be saved … ” (Romans 10

Then CMI (specifically, Calvin Smith) goes back to Creation and the Fall, the Judgement of Noah's Flood, and the Law, trying to explain Christianity to people who no longer know anything about it at all.

They note that the world is not on the Roman Road and does not understand the Roman World because materialism (evolution) is the dominant worldview for the last two hundred years.

Matthew 7:14 (KJV) Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Well, 1962 was about the time that science woke up because in the late 1950s they were able to map the bottom of the oceans with the help of sonar from submarines. Now they have even more accurate maps from satellites. That changed geology, although political funding for universities from Washington DC has insured that evolution and its needed deep time have retained a vicious control over what is taught.

1962? You must be old.
