12 For there is no difference between Jew and Greek, because they all have the same Lord, who gives richly to all who call on him.

13 For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

14 How, then, can people call on someone they have not believed? And how can they believe in someone they have not heard about? And how can they hear without someone preaching?

15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of thosewho bring the good news!"

16 But not everyone has obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah asks, "Lord, who has believed our message?"

17 Consequently, faith comes from listening, and listening comes through the word of Christ.
