This sermon from Romans 9:30–10:21 emphasizes that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ, and that faith is awakened by hearing the gospel. Paul’s burden for unbelieving Israel highlights the need for believers to share God’s Word urgently and faithfully. The message unfolds in three movements: cultivating the heart of an evangelist through prayer and burden for the lost, the message of an evangelist through clear gospel truth centered on Christ rather than works, and the practice of an evangelist through obedient proclamation. The central idea is that the world needs the Word, and God calls believers to be His messengers so others may hear, believe, and be saved.
