The Thoughts of Wesley son of Cornelius

In the Bible there are many wonderful verses. However, some of the verses are a must know. In the posts that follow, I will list 5 to 10 verses that I feel are very important for the Christian to remember. I personally will try to memorize these verses along with their references.

Verse 1:
Romans 3:23: “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23 NIV)

The key words in this verse are all, sinned, short and God.

All: the whole amount or quantity of, the whole number or sum of. All means all.
Sinned: to transgress from the Law of God, to be in a vitiated state or estranged from God.
Short: not coming up to a measure or not meeting a standard, goal, or height.
God: the Being perfect in power, wisdom, and goodness who is worshipped as creator and ruler of the universe.

Verse 1 (repeated):
Romans 3:23: “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23 NIV)
