Set Apart



Romans 1:1-6 (ESV Strong's)

Greeting

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God, 2 which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy Scriptures, 3 concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh 4 and was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, 5 through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations, 6 including you who are called to belong to Jesus Christ,

We, servants of Jesus Christ, called to be disciples and set apart in the gospel of God- the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures regarding His Son, who as to His earthly life a descendant of David, and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord. Through Him we received grace and discipleship by answering His call for the obedience that comes from faith for His name’s sake. We are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.  

We are set apart and belong to Jesus Christ.
