PREACH BROTHER PAUL TELLS US IN HIS

LETTER TO ALL BE AT ROME

5TH CHAPTER :6-8-VERSE ---For when we were yet

without strength, in due time Christ died for the

ungodly.

[7] For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet

peradventure for a good man some would even dare to

die.

[8] But God commendeth his love toward us, in that,

while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
