John 3:16 is known as “the gospel in a nutshell.” Another quick reference is the Romans Road to Salvation: a selection of Bible verses from the book of Romans that present the plan of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.

The Problem
Romans 3:23 (CEB)
All have sinned and fall short of God’s glory.
Romans 3:10 (CEV)
The Scriptures tell us, “No one is acceptable to God!”
The Consequences
Romans 5:12 (NIrV)
Sin entered the world because one man sinned. And death came because of sin.
Everyone sinned, so death came to all people.
Romans 6:23 (ERV)
When people sin, they earn what sin pays—death. But God gives his people a free gift—eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The Scope
Romans 1:20 (ICB)
There are things about God that people cannot see—his eternal power and all the things that make him God. But since the beginning of the world those things have been easy to understand. They are made clear by what God has made. So people have no excuse for the bad things they do.
The Solution
Romans 5:8 (GNT)
God has shown us how much he loves us—it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us!
The Response
Romans 10:9-10 (NIV)
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
The Assurance
Romans 10:13 (NLT)
Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

The Result
Romans 5:1 (VOICE)
Since we have been acquitted and made right through faith, we are able to experience true and lasting peace with God through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, the Liberating King.
Romans 8:1 (NIrV)
Those who belong to Christ Jesus are no longer under God’s judgment.
Romans 8:38-39 (NIV)
I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
