Assembly Of God
“God’s Hall of Faith”
Romans 1:17-32
17For in the gospel a
righteousness from God is
revealed, a righteousness
that is by faith from first
to last, just as it is written:
“The righteous will live by
faith.” 18The wrath of God is
being revealed from heaven
against all the godlessness
and wickedness of men who
suppress the truth by their
wickedness, 19since what
may be known about God is
plain to them, because God
has made it plain to them.
20For since the creation of
the world God’s invisible
qualities—his eternal power
and divine nature—have been
clearly seen, being understood
from what has been made, so
that men are without excuse.
21 For although they knew
God, they neither glorified
him as God nor gave thanks
to him, but their thinking
became futile and their
foolish hearts were darkened.
22Although they claimed to
be wise, they became fools
23 and exchanged the glory of
the immortal God for images
made to look like mortal man
and birds and animals and
reptiles. 24Therefore God
gave them over in the sinful
desires of their hearts to sexual
impurity for the degrading of
their bodies with one another.
25They exchanged the truth of
God for a lie, and worshiped
and served created things
rather than the Creator—who
is forever praised. Amen.
26Because of this, God gave
them over to shameful lusts.
Even their women exchanged
natural relations for unnatural
ones. 27In the same way the
men also abandoned natural
relations with women and
were inflamed with lust for
one another. Men committed
indecent acts with other men,
and received in themselves
the due penalty for their
perversion. 28Furthermore,
since they did not think it
worthwhile to retain the
knowledge of God, he gave
them over to a depraved
mind, to do what ought not
to be done. 29They have
become filled with every
kind of wickedness, evil,
greed and depravity. They are
full of envy, murder, strife,
deceit and malice. They are
gossips, 30slanderers, God-
haters, insolent, arrogant and
boastful; they invent ways of
doing evil; they disobey their
parents; 31they are senseless,
faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32Although they know God’s
righteous decree that those
who do such things deserve
death, they not only continue
to do these very things but
also approve of those who
practice them.
“This weeks Son Light”
God’s hall of faith in,
Hebrews 11, identifies a
number of Old Testament
saints who experience God’s
blessing as a result of their
Faith.

Seeds from the Sower
By Michael A. Guido
A farmer was a chronic
grumbler. He never missed a
chance to complain. But one
year he harvested a bumper
crop.
“You couldn’t ask for
more,” said a friend.
“I don’t know, “he grunted.
“Crops like this are hard on
the ground.”
It’s not the greatness of
the trouble that makes people
complain; it’s the littleness of
the soul.
And the reason why some
people are dog tired at night
is because they’ve growled all
day.
When things are good, be
grateful, and when things
aren’t good be grateful also.
Even then God is making all
things work together for your
good.
So be like the Levites of
whom the Bible says, they
“praised the Lord day by
day.”
