We have every reason to be proud to be a Christian.
1. Not ashamed of the Gospel. The message of the Gospel is in the view of the world 'weak' and so we fear what they say. Also, we will not be ashamed in God's presence.
2. It is the power of God to save people. The Gospel is where we see God really at work. It alone can save.
3. God's righteousness revealed. (a) It shows God's character. (b) It is a message of God's righteousness offered to us. Comes as a result of our believing. We have a new standing before God.
