    Everyone wants to be righteous, but what does that even mean? How do we gain that status? Check out this debate as presented by our Family Minister Scott Jewell.

    Read Romans 4 and pray We’re continuing our series about Christianese- those code words often only recognized by those who have been in the faith for some time.

    Abraham accounted righteous for his faith

    Romans 4:1-25 Abraham was accounted righteous by his faith—not good works. Our righteousness is as filthy rags—Isa. 64:6. We are righteous only through the new birth—John 3:1-8; II Cor. 5:17. To be right with God, we must be right with our fellowman. Note Abraham's ...read more

    Christian faith is a decision to believe and trust in Jesus Christ so complete, that actions result from it.

    We continue our study of the Letter to the Romans. We noted that the society in Rome 2000 years ago was like America today. The letter is quite applicable to us today. We also noted that the main message of the letter is the Gospel of Jesus Christ & how Christianity is to be lived out. Please open ...read more

    Justification by faith apart from works has always been God’s plan for salvation. Abraham was an Old Testament example.

    Introduction Justification by faith apart from works has always been God’s plan for salvation. Old Testament example is Abraham. 1.

    Abraham was not justified by works... nor by the law.

    ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD. Romans 4:1-5; Romans 4:13-17. Righteousness is not something which we can accomplish, but rather comes as a gift from God through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 3:21-22; Romans 3:26). The Apostle Paul illustrates this by precedent: “Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned ...read more

    Abraham was righteous before God. But what was the grounds of Abraham's righteousness, faith or works? The answer of Jewish tradition was works, but Scripture says Abraham's righteousness was by faith. Paul proves that the doctrine of justification by fai

    ROMANS 4: 1-8 RIGHTEOUSNESS IS APART FROM WORKS In the preceding paragraph (3:21-31) Paul has been proclaiming a righteousness from God, and therefore valid before God, because it does not in any way depend on human merit.

    My standing with God is dependent on what I receive not what I achieve

    I’m sure all of us are pretty familiar with how our finances operate in this culture. We go to work and we earn wages which we deposit in a bank account. The bank credits that amount of money to our account. But we also have bills to pay. And regardless of how we might choose to pay those ...read more

    Is This All There Is To Life?

    Abraham discovered that real LIFE is about walking with God! Getting to know God! And in the text Paul tells us that God still wants people to walk with Him by faith.

    March 7, 1993 Romans 4:1 "What shall we say that Abraham ... has found?" The question of our text, "What has Abraham discovered?" comes between two Bible stories in our lesson for today; one from the Old Testament, one from the New. Both of these stories touch on the profound ...read more

    There’s a difference between dead-end religion and living faith.

    I expect the issue of minimum wage will come up in Congress again this year. There are good arguments on both sides - Those who are in favor of raising it will argue, rightly, that you can’t support a family on a minimum wage job, and that people who “work hard and play by the rules” should be able ...read more
