NASB | Romans 10:17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 10:17 So faith comes from hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the [preaching of the] message concerning Christ. |
Subject: Is hearing necessary for salvation? |
Bible Note: Paul's chief point here in Romans 10:17 and in verses 14 and 15 is that the gospel message must be presented and received in order for one to have saving faith. Obviously, the message can be communicated to the deaf via sign language or the written word. --Hank |
