For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”
Romans 1:17 ESV
God's justice is different than man's and relies primarily upon our faith in him. If you trust God, he counts you as one of his and will save you. This is the righteousness of God.
"The righteous shall live by faith" is a quote from Habakkuk 2:4 in which "righteous" is more literally translated as "just" and could be thought of as "justified". Belief in the promises of God brings life and we walk out that belief by living according to his commandments. Even if we don't understand how God's laws or actions are righteous, our faith requires that we accept that they are.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
Romans 1:16 ESV
The gospel is the power of God to save all who believe, and not just the Jews to whom the promise of the gospel was first given. It is his power because there is power in his word. If he says something is true, then it is true. If he says that you will be saved, then you will be.
"Everyone who believes" means that you must believe that God has come to set up his Kingdom and has the power and desire to restore you to relationship with him in that Kingdom.
This will certainly cause some concern among evolutionists who insist that given enough time anything is possible.

Is one world government a bad thing? That's what we might conclude from Christian eschatology, and even from patriotic nationalism. But is it still a bad thing if global government is God's idea?
