Romans: The Power of the Gospel (Page 2)
Isn’t the Law Good?
Paul said in Romans 6:14 that we “are not under law but under grace.” And now in Romans 7:4 that have “died to the law in the body of Christ,”.So what do we make of the law of God and what purpose does it have for us today? Join us as we look at the first half of Romans 7 as we continue to look at the Power of The Gospel.
You Will Always Be a Slave
From the dawn of time mankind has been faced with choices, and with those choices comes varying results.The enemy of our souls wishes to enslave us in our passions and desires, while the Shepherd of our souls wishes to set us free.The choice is yours to make, but, only the choice to be in Christ will lead to life and freedom.
When Sin is Put to Death
With sin still present in or world, even in our own lives, how are we to view our sin? How do we come out from under the burden of our sin?Paul gives us some very helpful perspectives and ways to train our minds on the matter in Romans 6
The Difference One Man Made
Coming out of celebrating Jesus’ first coming to earth, Paul will show us the immense difference one Man can have in the world.
A Big Peace of the Puzzle
As we celebrate the Advent of Christ’s birth, something missing will be revealed. A crucial peace of God’s plan will be restored. Paul will remind us of what we have gained by the coming of Jesus and what he has accomplished for us.
The Tension of Hope
As the season of Advent begins, one of the words that we often focus on is Hope.If it was just wishful thinking it wouldn’t have much substance.But Hope has a long, well founded history in the Word of God.Hope plays a part in the entire plan of God including the Gospel message.
Works Won’t Work
Why do we work so hard to get that which can only be received by faith?
Problem Solved
Since all of us fall short of God’s will and are unable to provide our own solution for our sinful condition, what hope do we have?
A Stark Contrast
Does growing up in the “Faith” give you an advantage? Does it also give you a “free pass”? Listen to what Paul says to the people of God in the Jewish people from Romans 3:1-20.
False Veneer
Today’s service is a joint service between the congregations of Overisel and Bethel Christian Reformed Churches. We will be looking at the conclusion of Romans chapter 2:17-29 with Pastor Jon Bosma bringing the message. Both Pastors will be leading in the service today as we celebrate the Lord’s Supper together.
