Romans 5 – The Listening Plan

Devotional

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

– Romans 5:8

I’ve had the privilege of ministering in countries all over the world. I’ve taught many messages and classes with translators by my side. One thing becomes very clear to you when you work with a translator in that way … some things are lost in translation.

God, through the Prophets declared His love to His people (Jeremiah 31:3, for example). But this is one such message that could be lost in translation. Therefore, Jesus came to personally show us exactly what He meant when He said, “I have loved you with an everlasting love.”
