Thanksgiving Excerpt Paul rejoices primarily because all the world has learned about the Christians in Rome. While some (Hodge 1950; Barrett 1957) believe this means that their faith was so extraordinary that it was known everywhere, it is more likely that this refers not so much to the quality of their faith as to the fact of it (Bruce 1985; Cranfield 1975; Moo 1996; Schreiner 1998). Rome was the hub of the world, and as such the Roman church would be known everywhere. Paul was thankful that God had established his church there and that it had an effect everywhere.  More Osborne, Grant R.  Romans . Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2004. Print.

Thanksgiving Thanksgiving (1:8)*  Paul rejoices primarily because all the world has learned about the Christ ians in Rome. While some (Hodge 1950; Barrett 1957) believe this means that their faith was so extraordinary that it was known everywhere, it is more likely that this refers not so much to the quality of their faith as to the fact of it (Bruce 1985; Cranfield 1975; Moo 1996; Schreiner 1998). Rome was the hub of the world, and as such the Roman church would be known everywhere. Paul was thankful that God had established his church there and that it had an effect everywhere.

STOP  NOW AND PRAY A PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING TO  JEHOVAH . If you don't know why you should pray a prayer of thanksgiving is, because  Yahweh  did not have to give you his  grace  and  mercy  to see this moment of a new day. The least you can do before you start your day is to say "thank you  Jehovah  for your  grace  and  mercy  to allow me to see this second of a new day of your creation. Here is the  Lord's Day  ministry for the sick, "shut-ins", incarcerated, Armed Forces around the world and to the saved and un-saved that are seeking the  Lord  through  biblical  truth.  Welcome all and may  Yahweh  bless your day. In  Jesus'  name. Amen.
