The Missing Peace

Contributed by Jonathan Campbell on Oct 14, 2008

How can we have peace with God? The text gives us the answer - "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ".

1. A POSITION "Therefore being justified by faith" What is justification? Just-as-if-I’d-never-sinned When we place our faith in Christ alone, God the Father treats us as if we had never sinned. Remember that justification is by faith. It is obtained not attained. In the previous chapter Paul ...read more

We Have Nothing

Contributed by Johnny Wilson on May 21, 2009

After Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He shared some parables about our persistence in prayer and the certainty of God’s great gift in answer--the Holy Spirit.
