11 The scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”
12 This includes everyone, because there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles; God is the same Lord of all and richly blesses all who call to him.
13 As the scripture says, “Everyone who calls out to the Lord for help will be saved.”
14 But how can they call to him for help if they have not believed? And how can they believe if they have not heard the message? And how can they hear if the message is not proclaimed?
15 And how can the message be proclaimed if the messengers are not sent out? As the scripture says, “How wonderful is the coming of messengers who bring good news!”
16 But not all have accepted the Good News. Isaiah himself said, “Lord, who believed our message?”
17 So then, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message comes through preaching Christ.
