day no. 12,812: all roads that bookend Romans‏

Romans 1:5

...to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations
 
Romans 16:26
 
but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith
 
The greatest book of theology ever written begins and ends with the delightful tension captured in the phrase,"the obedience of faith."
 
It is not merely the knowing, but living knowledge.
It is not merely living, but knowing Life.
 
And not just for you.
Or me.
 
But to ALL NATIONS.
 
Saddle up.
 
Let's do this thing.
