Romans 1:8 - Your faith is being reported all over the world

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world.

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout the whole world.

Paul almost always began his letters by expressing appreciation and thanks. What a great example!

In this verse, Paul praises the faith of the Roman Christians. Their faith in Christ and their location at the center of the Roman Empire was spreading the Gospel across the entire known world.

Today's technology is aiding in spreading the Gospel in ways Paul could never have imagined.

Emails, websites, blogs, Facebook and Twitter are new tools we have to share God's Word. What an exciting time! Let our faith be reported all over the world!
