God is  in Romans

Below are the places within Romans where we find the literal phrase of God is.  Every Bible reference is a link that, if you are connected to the internet (or have a local copy of LJC1611kjv.com), will take you to the Book Study where that verse is explained in detail and within the context and with many links to other places within the Bible which support the interpretation.  Therefore, there is much more help available beyond the little presented here.

God is my witness

1. Romans 1:9-10  For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
2. Is God your witness?  If yes then people can see God working in and through your life.
3. The gospel of his Son  is the 'good news that Jesus shows us the character of God the Father and shows us how we can become sons of God  (John 1:12-13)'.
4. 'What Did Jesus Do?' is a good doctrine but it requires us searching the Gospels for where Jesus was in similar circumstances and then seeing what the Gospel tells us that He did.
5. God has angels recording how much you pray for others. That record will be at the judgment seat of Christ  (Romans C14S16; 2Corinthians 5:10).
6. How much are you willing to suffer in order to help others to become more spiritually mature?  Paul suffered much because off his travels and because of his preaching.

God is revealed

1. Romans 1:16-17  For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
2. God is revealed in the gospel of Christ  which is 'the good news that God can change you to be like Him after your initial profession'.
3. The phrase for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth  speaks about our initial profession but our verse does not stop at our initial profession but continues with other things that the gospel of Christ  brings into the life of a believer.
4. Notice that our verses say: For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith.  The therein  means within the gospel of Christ.  Revealed  means that it is made available for the world to see. The phrase from faith to faith  is speaking about when we add to our faith  and grow spiritually. When we increase our faith  and grow spiritually we receive more of the righteousness of God  which is then revealed  to the world through our personal life.
5. The phrase as it is written, The just shall live by faith  shows us that this is based upon scripture. It also tells us that our doing what is in these verses provides proof that we are just  and that we live by faith.  Those who claim to live by faith  but fail to do what these verses say prove themselves to be liars.

God is manifest

1. Romans 1:18-19  For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
2. The phrase that which may be known of God is manifest in them  means that not only all of nature but the construction of our own bodies reveal in every way possible (manifest)  that there is a God, that he is greater than us, that He is smarter than us and many more things.
3. The phrase For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven  speaks of many ways that For the wrath of God is revealed. 
4. All die. This is God's wrath  against sin and points us to the second death. 
5. Even the lost believe in the saying of: 'what comes around goes around'. They see that God brings judgment upon people in the same form of sin that they did against other people.
6. the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven  speaks about all cultures recognizing storms and natural disasters as the wrath of God.
7. The phrase against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness  speaks about the universal expectation that God will bring vengeance upon all unrighteous  people regardless of their power and position in this world.

God is able

1. Romans 11:22-23  Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
2. This is talking about how the Jews were God's olive tree and how God cut them off because they refused to come to God in faith. It is telling us that if we refuse to come to God in faith God will cut us off also. In addition, if the Jews turn to God in faith then God is able to graff them in again.  Basically, God is able to save anyone who comes to Him by faith and God is able to provide them with all of the spiritual nourishment that they need so long as they remain attached to God by faith.
3. Romans 14:4  Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
4. It doesn't how sinful or vile we think a person is, God is able to make him stand.  It is all dependent upon God and nothing in our life is impossible for God to overcome.
