Romans 1:17 KJV
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
I am always captivated by the concept of the righteousness of God being revealed "from faith to faith."
Paul's intense desire to go to Rome and preach the Gospel was for that very reason. He knew that the sharing of his faith would spread faith from one heart and soul to another. He also knew this would not be a one way street. He knew they would mutually comfort one another in the Gospel.
The believer is wisest
• First to recognize his dependence on others of faith to encourage and increase his own
• Then to see that faith is never to be held alone but that it is to be spread "from faith to faith."
