St. Andrew, Apostle
Romans 10:10-18
For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses
with the mouth and so is saved. The scripture says, "No one who believes
in him will be put to shame." For there is no distinction between Jew and
Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all and is generous to all who call on
him. For, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
But how are they to call on one in whom they have not believed? And how
are they to believe in one of whom they have never heard? And how are
they to hear without someone to proclaim him? And how are they to
proclaim him unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are
the feet of those who bring good news!" But not all have obeyed the good
news; for Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our message?" So faith
comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the word of
Christ.
But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have; for
"Their voice has gone out to all the earth,
and their words to the ends of the world."
