If It Can’t Save Us, Why Did God Give The Law?

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 31, 2017

This sermon answers two big questions: 1. Why do I need the Law to make me aware of my sin? 2. Why would I want the Law to make me aware of my sin?

A Question: “If it can’t save us, why did God give the Law?” - Romans 3:19-20. - To clarify as we begin: when Paul here speaks of the Law, he has in mind the Mosaic Law given to Israel by God. - By extension, we could make similar point about the truth of God generally. - The Law does not save ...read more

The Lord’s Patience Is Only Giving Us Extra Time To Be Saved

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on May 17, 2021

This is an exposition of 2 Peter 3 as we learn not to become swayed by scoffers who cast doubts in our minds about the return of Jesus Christ. Jesus is coming as He promised; what seems like a delay is only a chance for us to repent. In the mean time, we should live godly as we await His return.

1. In the last days, there will be scoffers (v. 3) 2. The scoffers will be following their own evil (sinful) desires (v. 3) 3. They will mock the promise of the coming of Jesus Christ saying “Where is the promise of His coming?” they will ask. “Ever since our fathers fell asleep, everything ...read more

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. I and the Father ...read more
