2. The Goodness Of God
Contributed on Feb 2, 2010
Today, I want us to consider the goodness of God. The goodness of God is designed to appeal to our better nature and cause us to respond favorably to God. The purpose of God's goodness and forbearance is not to encourage sin, but to appeal to man's better
The Goodness of God Romans 2:4 “Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?” In the book of Romans, Paul introduces the Gospel of Jesus Christ as the only means for an unrighteous ...read more

3. The Benefits Of Justification By Faith In Christ
Contributed on Feb 2, 2010
We are continuing our study in the Book of Romans. The apostle Paul takes it for granted that he has proved that justification is by grace through faith and that the Gentiles have an equal part with the Jews in salvation by faith in Christ Jesus. Now he p

5. The Spirit Of Life In Christ Jesus
Contributed on Feb 2, 2010
Romans Chapter 8 is designed to unlock the mystery and addresses the subject of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus and the difference Christ makes. Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit completely changes the life of every believer. Believers

6. The Way To Salvation By Faith
Contributed on Feb 2, 2010
Some preachers had complicated, confused, and even distorted the message of salvation to the point that many people wonder, “Does anyone know; Is anyone sure what to believe?” There are so many denominations, “Can they all be right?” What about the talk s
The Way to Salvation by Faith Romans 10:1-17 The apostle Paul in chapter 9 and 10 sets out to reveal God's plans for Israel's past, present and future. I realize that many today are predicting the destruction of the nation of Israel. Recently, one of the Palestinian leaders said that, ...read more

9. Give Mutual Acceptance To The Body Of Christ
Contributed on Feb 2, 2010
Most Christians understand how we are supposed to live in the world. We are lights in a dark world. We are Christ’s ambassadors, His personal representatives in a foreign land. Yet, sometimes we struggle to live peaceable with fellow believers. The princi
