—Romans 10:14-21
by: Leanne Lippincott.
Have you ever thought of former Philippine missionary, Pastor Rod Henry, as having beautiful feet? What about David and Bettie Pearson, who have spent years ministering in Malawi, Africa? Verse 15 exclaims, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” (also see Isaiah 52:7).
The Jewish people refused to accept Jesus as their Messiah. Paul questioned how anyone could believe unless others were willing to go out into the world to preach the gospel. But Paul rejected the notion that most Jews never heard the message. “Of course, they did,” he wrote. After citing Moses and Isaiah, he told how he, himself, reached out to Israel, only to be rejected by “a disobedient and obstinate people” (v. 21).
