Paul’s Letter To The Romans
11 - For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be shamed.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek {between hebrew and former pagan; between saved and not yet saved; or between literal and spiritual/metaphor? - for the two are ONE} for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call upon him. {Ego seeks to divide literal and metaphor? Or vice versa.. They are not mutually exclusive, don’t have to be. Logically cannot be. The root of denial, of either(!) is fear? But we keep going forward, not grasping old, outdated.. So Perfect Love can cast away aLL fear.} 13 For “everyone who calls upon the name [onoma - name, character, fame, reputation, cause] of the Lord is saved.”
14 How then will someone call upon him, if they don’t believe he is? And how can they believe he is, if they’ve never heard of him? And how are they to hear without someone speaking? 15 And how are they to speak it, unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who proclaim the good news!”
