Bible in a Year: Ezekiel 24-26, 1 Peter 2

Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Romans 10:13

Today's Scripture & Insight: Romans 10:5-15

The country of El Salvador has honored Jesus by placing a sculpture of Him in the center of its capital city. Although the monument resides in the middle of a busy traffic circle, its height makes it easy to see, and its name—The Divine Savior of the World—communicates reverence for His supernatural status.

The monument's name affirms what the Bible says about Jesus (1 John 4:14). He's the One who offers salvation to everyone. Christ crosses cultural boundaries and accepts any sincere person who wants to know Him, regardless of age, education, ethnicity, past sin, or social status.

The apostle Paul traveled the ancient world telling people about Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. He shared this good news with political and religious authorities, soldiers, Jews, gentiles, men, women, and children. Paul explained that a person could begin a relationship with Christ by declaring "Jesus is Lord" and believing that God had indeed raised Him from the dead (Romans 10:9). He said, "Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame. . . . Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved" (vv. 11, 13).

Jesus isn't a distant image to be honored; we must have a person-to-person connection with Him through faith. May we see the value of the salvation He offers and move forward into a spiritual relationship with Him today.
