While this world is no longer the one that “God pronounced very good,” Romans 8:18-27 states we as Christians can experience unspeakable joy while living on this earth when we allow our groaning to focus not on our current suffering but on the glory we are about to receive!

Sin: The Struggle, The Revelation

Contributed by Lee Hammond Houston Jr. on Jan 31, 2021

Romans 3:23, "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Even the Apostle Paul was one of the “all have sinned.” Only Christ was without sin. Paul sometimes disappointed people, sometimes made mistakes, and sometimes just plain messed up.

Sin: the Struggle, the Revelation Our scripture today is Romans 7:14-8:4. I am breaking it in half, for in the first half Paul writes like a frustrated man, but in the second half Paul reveals a wonderful revelation. Listen to how disturbed Paul is in this first half, Romans 7:14-24. "14 ...read more

The Harsh Reality And Unavoidable Issue Of Sin

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Oct 13, 2021

Sin is a serious and destructive fact of life. We define it as a series of "mistakes", "errors of judgment", or "bad behavior". We need to see sin for what it is -an abomination in the sight of a Holy God (Ezekiel 18:20; Romans 6:23).

Modern society more and more makes very little of or does not even bother to think about sin as a serious and destructive fact of life. There are varying attitudes towards the subject of sin. Some view the idea as an illusion, the construction of ancient religious fanatics, or fantasy. Many deny ...read more

Hoping Against Hope Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Oct 20, 2022

In Romans 4:18-25, the Apostle Paul shows us through the life and faith of the patriarch Abraham three realities of Biblical hope: 1) Its Analysis (vv. 18–19), 2) Its Assurance (v20- 22), and 3) Its Application (vv. 23–25).

Romans 4:18-25. [18] In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been told, "So shall your offspring be."

The Challenge

Powerful Prepositions

Contributed by Joe Dan Vendelin on May 11, 2024

How things start out can often determine if they are victorious in the end. Our final outcomes are judged not in the light of today, but in the light of eternity. Romans 11:36 shows us a three-pronged test to get us started out right and to help us see it through to the end.

According to Merriam-Webster, a preposition at its most basic form shows direction. Romans 11:36 is packed full of three powerful prepositions. Not because the words themselves hold power, but because they are providing direction to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. It says, “For from him ...read more
