              Paul’s Letter To The

1 - My heart's desire and prayer to God for my countrymen is for salvation. 2 For I bear witness about them, that they have a genuine zeal for God, but not according to accurate knowledge. {History repeats? In many shades..?} 3 For not knowing of the righteousness of God, and seeking to attain their own, they don’t submit to God's righteousness. 4 For Christ is the end [telos - the end aim] of the law for righteousness to everyone believing. 5 Moses wrote about the righteousness that is based upon the law {external} that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness based upon faith {internal} says, “Don’t say in your heart, ‘Who shall ascend into heaven?’” that is, to bring Christ down {to ones self?} 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’” that is, to bring Christ up from the dead. 8 But what does it say? “The word is near to you, in your mouth and in your heart” that is, the word of faith that we proclaim. 9 Because, if you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you are saved.10 For with the heart we believe and are freely justified. And with the mouth we speak it and are saved [sozo - safe, rescued, delivered]. {Fini. The end. (Aim)}
