Bible Note: Greetings Ezjman! Your note just popped up on the top of the home page of the forum. It was the first time I had a chance to read it. I just wanted to commend you! You did an excellent job of summarizing the first 8 chapters of Romans. There seems to be two key verses that sum up what you are saying. 1) Chapters 1-3: Romans 3:23 - "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God," 2) Chapters 4-8: Romans 6:23 - "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
