Romans 15:16

Jesus Is Mocked

¹⁵ But in parts of this letter I have expressed myself somewhat boldly--by way of refreshing your memories-- ¹⁶ Because of the charge with which God has entrusted me, that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus to go to the Gentiles--that I should act as a priest of God's Good News, so that the offering up of the Gentiles may be an acceptable sacrifice, consecrated by the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ It is, then, through my union with Christ Jesus that I have a proud confidence in my work for God.
