Romans chapter one

I’m currently reading a book titled ROMANS, Exposition of Chapter 1, The Gospel of God by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones.

“By that date Dr Lloyd-Jones had been more than 25 years in the ministry and his convictions on how Scripture should be taught were fully matured.”

Significant numbers in the Bible.

The New Bible Dictionary (Inter-Varsity Fellowship) says that “It is natural to associate the number three with the Trinity of Persons in the Godhead.”

The number THREE in the Bible

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,

baptising them in the name of the Father

and of the Son

and of the Holy Spirit.”

Matthew 28:19

The Cross

“Blessed is he

Psalm 41:1-3

Intr.:

who has regard for the weak;

1.  the LORD delivers him in times of trouble.

2.  The LORD will protect him and  and

3.  preserve his life;

4.  he will bless him in the land and

5.  not surrender him to the desires of his foes.

6.  The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed and

7.  restore him from his bed of illness.”

 End:

“I will perpetuate your memory through all generations; therefore the nations will praise you for ever and ever.” – Psalm 45:17

SIGNIFICANT NUMBERS IN THE BIBLE

The New Bible Dictionary (Inter-Varsity Fellowship) tells me that the number “two can be a figure both of unity and of division.”

“‘NO ONE CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS.

EITHER HE WILL HATE THE ONE

THE NUMBER TWO IN THE BIBLE

AND LOVE THE OTHER,

OR HE WILL BE DEVOTED TO THE ONE

AND DESPISE THE OTHER.

YOU CANNOT SERVE BOTH GOD AND MONEY.'”

Matthew 6:24

The Cross

“The mouth

Psalm 37:30,31

Intr.:

of the righteous man

1.  utters wisdom, and

2.  his tongue speaks what is just.

3.  The law of the LORD is in his heart;

4.  his feet do not slip.”

End:
