Martin: Gospel and action

Monday, July 8, 2019
Meditation:
    Now to him who is able to establish you by my gospel and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past, but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all nations might believe and obey him—to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
    —Romans 16:25-27 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Happily for us, the fundamental Christian message concerns not what we ought to do, but what God has done and what God is willing to do. In fellowship with Him and with others who are likewise trying to be like Him, we can be lifted up above our native possibilities.
    ... Hugh Martin (1890-1964)
    See also Rom. 16:25-27; Ps. 66:5; Matt. 13:45-46; Rom. 1:16-17
