I agree with the first sentence of your statement, however, in reading the second sentence, I am not certain you get what Romans 1 is teaching. Paul tells us there that the gospel of Jesus Christ IS the power of God unto salvation. When we trust/believe the story of what Christ did for us in dying on the cross as "he bore our sins in his own body on the tree". We are saved at that moment, and for eternity. "The just shall live by faith", means that, the justified(those who accept the death of Jesus on the cross as payment for their sins, as God the father intended it to be), "shall live", here, now and forever, "by faith", by the belief that Christ did all the work of saving lost sinners by dying in our stead and paying a debt we could never pay. Christ was free of sin and only his sacrifice was acceptable payment for the sins of the world, "Behold the lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world", " He that hath the son hath life".
