                    I’ve entitled our message today, Doing what we have to do: The Gospel Lifestyle.    I want to draw your attention this morning to a couple of passages in the Book of Romans chapter 1:16-17.  Paul had been introducing his letter to them and was finishing up his greetings and so on when he said this; “I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then for the Gentile.  For 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.” (Quoting Hab. 2:4)
