Bible Reading for November 30
Acts 20
[2] And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation,
he came into Greece,
Romans 1
[1] Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto
the gospel of God,
[2] (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) [3]
Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David
according to the flesh;
[4] And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of
holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: [5] By whom we have received grace
and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
[6] Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ: [7] To all that be in
Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our
Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. [8] First, I thank my God through Jesus
Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
[9] For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his
Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; [10]
Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey
by the will of God to come unto you. [11] For I long to see you, that I may
impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
[12] That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith
both of you and me.
[13] Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to
come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you
also, even as among other Gentiles. [14] I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to
the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
[15] So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are
at Rome also.
[16] For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God
unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the
Greek.
[17] For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as
it is written, The just shall live by faith. [18] For the wrath of God is
revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who
hold the truth in unrighteousness; [19] Because that which may be known of God
is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
[20] For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly
seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and
Godhead; so that they are without excuse: [21] Because that, when they knew
God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in
their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
[22] Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, [23] And changed the
glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and
to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
[24] Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their
own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: [25] Who changed
the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than
the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. [26] For this cause God gave them
up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into
that which is against nature: [27] And likewise also the men, leaving the
natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men
working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of
their error which was meet.
[28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave
them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
[29] Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers,
[30] Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil
things, disobedient to parents, [31] Without understanding, covenantbreakers,
without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
[32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are
worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Romans 2
[1] Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for
wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest
doest the same things.
[2] But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them
which commit such things.
[3] And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and
doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? [4] Or despisest
thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing
that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
[5] But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself
wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
[6] Who will render to every man according to his deeds: [7] To them who by
patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality,
eternal life: [8] But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the
truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, [9] Tribulation and
anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of
the Gentile; [10] But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good,
to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: [11] For there is no respect of
persons with God. [12] For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish
without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
[13] (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the
law shall be justified.
[14] For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things
contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
[15] Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience
also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else
excusing one another;)
[16] In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ
according to my gospel.
[17] Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy
boast of God,
[18] And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent,
being instructed out of the law;
[19] And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of
them which are in darkness,
[20] An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of
knowledge and of the truth in the law. [21] Thou therefore which teachest
another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal,
dost thou steal? [22] Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost
thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
[23] Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law
dishonourest thou God?
[24] For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is
written.
[25] For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a
breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. [26] Therefore if
the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his
uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? [27] And shall not uncircumcision
which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and
circumcision dost transgress the law? [28] For he is not a Jew, which is one
outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: [29]
But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart,
in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Romans 3
[1] What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
[2] Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles
of God.
[3] For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of
God without effect?
[4] God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written,
That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou
art judged.
[5] But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we
say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man) [6] God
forbid: for then how shall God judge the world? [7] For if the truth of God
hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a
sinner? [8] And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm
that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just. [9]
What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved
both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; [10] As it is written,
There is none righteous, no, not one: [11] There is none that understandeth,
there is none that seeketh after God. [12] They are all gone out of the way,
they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not
one. [13] Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used
deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: [14] Whose mouth is full of
cursing and bitterness: [15] Their feet are swift to shed blood: [16]
Destruction and misery are in their ways: [17] And the way of peace have they
not known: [18] There is no fear of God before their eyes. [19] Now we know
that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law:
that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before
God.
[20] Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his
sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. [21] But now the righteousness
of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the
prophets; [22] Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ
unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: [23] For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; [24] Being justified
freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
[25] Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood,
to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through
the forbearance of God;
[26] To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just,
and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. [27] Where is boasting then?
It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
[28] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds
of the law.
[29] Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of
the Gentiles also:
[30] Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and
uncircumcision through faith.
[31] Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish
the law.
Romans 4
[1] What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh,
hath found?
[2] For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not
before God.
[3] For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto
him for righteousness.
[4] Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
[5] But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the
ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. [6] Even as David also
describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness
without works, [7] Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and
whose sins are covered.
[8] Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. [9] Cometh this
blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also?
for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
[10] How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in
uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. [11] And he
received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith
which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them
that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be
imputed unto them also: [12] And the father of circumcision to them who are not
of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our
father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised. [13] For the promise,
that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed,
through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
[14] For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the
promise made of none effect:
[15] Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no
transgression.
[16] Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the
promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law,
but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
[17] (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him
whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things
which be not as though they were. [18] Who against hope believed in hope, that
he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken,
So shall thy seed be. [19] And being not weak in faith, he considered not his
own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the
deadness of Sara's womb:
[20] He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in
faith, giving glory to God;
[21] And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to
perform.
[22] And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. [23] Now it was not
written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; [24] But for us also,
to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord
from the dead; [25] Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again
for our justification.
