November 4 "The Word is Near You" Romans 10

"Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven?  Or, Who shall descend into the deep? But say: The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes and with the mouth confesses."  Romans 6-10

"The self-condemned sinner need not perplex himself how this righteousness may be found. When we speak of looking upon Christ, and receiving, and feeding upon him, it is not Christ in heaven, nor Christ in the deep, that we mean; but Christ in the promise, Christ offered in the word. Justification by faith in Christ is a plain doctrine. It is brought before the mind and heart of every one, thus leaving him without excuse for unbelief."  Matthew Henry. This Christ is offered in the Word and how beautiful is that. The Living Word. 33,193 words from God.
