  1. rom

    A Read-Only Memory (ROM) is a type of storage medium used in computers and other electronic devices. Data stored in ROM cannot be electronically modified after the manufacture of the memory device. It contains the programming needed to start a device, which is essential for booting up processes. It's non-volatile, meaning it holds its content even when the power is turned off. Examples include firmware (software routines that are directly programmed into the read-only memory of hardware devices), microcode, and system BIOS stored on a motherboard.

Paul says 'But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us' (Rom. 58). Therefore, in Him we are freely given all things redemption, forgiveness of sins, righteousness, peace, hope, wisdom and knowledge.
