Romans 10:10-17
Evangelical Heritage Version
10 For it is with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and it is with the mouth that a person confesses, resulting in salvation. 11 For Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.”[a]
12 So there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, because the same Lord is Lord of all, who gives generously to all who call on him. 13 Yes, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”[b]
Israel Rejected the Message God Sent
14 So then, how can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one about whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without a preacher? 15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news of peace,[c] who preach the gospel of good things!”[d]
16 But not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who believed our message?”[e] 17 So then, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message comes through the word of Christ.[f]
