The Romans Road verses in order
Here are the five steps of the Romans Road as they appear in the printable, each with the KJV words on the map and the verses printed in full in the PDF. Each verse explained: The Romans Road.
- Everyone needs God: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:10 · Romans 3:23 · Romans 3:24)
- Sin has a cost, but God offers a gift: “the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:23)
- God loved you first: “while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8)
- Believe and confess: “confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus” (Romans 10:9 · Romans 10:10)
- Anyone can call on Him: “whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13)
Where the road leads: Peace with God, “we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:1), and “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1).
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
The Romans Road map
One page, five numbered stops on a single road, from “Everyone needs God” to “Peace with God”, each with its KJV phrase and reference. Good for a fridge, a Bible cover or a youth room wall.
Romans Road tract
Print the tract single-sided and fold it in thirds so the “Good news for you” panel is on the front. It carries five verses printed whole, a short “Want to respond?” note and the page link, so a friend can read the rest later.
Pocket cards
Ten wallet-size cards, about 3.6 × 2.4 in on US Letter, with the full KJV verse on each: Romans 3:23, 3:24, 6:23, 5:8, 10:9, 10:10, 10:13 and 5:1, plus a title card and a next-steps card. Keep them in your Bible as bookmarks and memorize one a day.
A simple prayer and next steps
Page 8 is gentle and has no pressure. There is no special formula, and a prayer does not save by itself; it is one way to tell God you trust Jesus. The next steps are simple: tell someone, read the Gospel of John, talk to God daily, find a church family and ask about baptism, and keep the cards close. See Bible verses about baptism.
Sharing it gently
Page 9 has eight notes for sharing with kindness: listen first, ask rather than push, use a Bible, use plain words, tell your own story, leave room for questions, apply no pressure, and leave something behind. It also shows how to mark the Road in your own Bible, from Romans 3:23 to 8:1. See Bible verses about sharing the gospel.
