    What is faith? What did the Scriptures mean by "Abraham believed God?" How can we believe God?

    There is a play entitled, THE REAL THING, in which there is a conversation between a husband and a wife. It is one of those trecherous marital conversations and in this particular case, the husband is trying to discover if his wife has been faithful to him. "Have you ever taken a lover," he ...read more

    A study of faith in the Old Testament

    I. Abraham Was Justified by Faith, Not Works (4:1-8) A. Salvation is not of works nor has it ever been, and is only by faith. B. It should be clear that man can not contribute anything to his salvation. It is all of God, all of grace. C. Ephesians 2:8, 9 D. Hebrews 11 E. Thomas Watson (C. ...read more

    A study on the Book of Romans

    Work Or Promise, You Choose Chapter 4 How can a holy and righteous God be just and holy and at the same time allow sinful man to come into His presence? It also teaches that man is a sinful creature. In fact, he is dead in his sins and trespasses. Paul views salvation in three ways: 1. as ...read more

    What are some of the things we should say concerning justification according to Paul in Romans 4?

    What Shall We Say Then? 6 Occurrences: What then shall we say? (6:1; 7:7; 8:31; 9:14, 30) When we are talking about Paul’s argument, we are talking about blessings…that define who God is and what he has determined for those who love Him. Abraham is an example of how God deals with people. ...read more

    Message that shows what we gain from God’s Grace in our salvation and shows what we are condemned to, if we fail to accept Christ as Lord.

    The Scriptures are trustworthy. They are the truth and they declare to us that we do not have to work to earn mercy! Our hope rests in Christ alone!

    In Christ Alone, Romans 4:1-5, 13-17 Introduction I read the story of a 3-year-old little girl who used the word “salvation” in a conversation one day. Her mother was surprised to hear such a word come from such a little girl so she asked her daughter if she understood what the word meant. “I ...read more

    Righteous by Faith RO 4:1 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather, discovered in this matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about--but not before God. 3 What does the Scripture say?

    There are those who claim we must be sanctified, that is holy, before we can be justified. They claim universal holiness or obedience must precede justification.

    This chapter is perhaps one of the greatest chapters in the Bible on salvation by faith alone. Many religious groups claim to believe in salvation by faith, but not in salvation by faith alone.

    . Paul has already made it clear that there must be an inward change of heart and obedience to the law, and that mere external observances can never save a lost sinner. Now Paul proceeds to show how Abraham was pronounced righteous before he was circumc

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: The flesh is a built-in law of failure, making it impossible for the natural man to please or serve God. It is a compulsive inner force inherited from man’s fall, which expresses itself in general and specific rebellion against God and His righteousness. The flesh can ...read more

    Human sensibility and common sense will only take a person so far. The best logic will not help a person get into heaven. Abraham is an outstanding example of man whose faith defied all human reasoning through many crises.

    Why Abraham’s Faith Was Superior to Human Reasoning (Rom. 4:10-12) Illustration:The more we know of God, the more unreservedly we will trust him; the greater our progress in theology, the simpler and more childlike will be our faith.

    Good Friday April 18, 2003 One of the mainline denominations in the USA is in an uproar this Easter because one of its chief bishops gave an Easter message in which he said that Jesus was a sinner.

    If your iniquities have been forgiven and if your sins have been covered you are indeed a blessed man or woman. You and I are a blessed man or woman if we have received forgiveness from God when we really deserved the judgment of God.

    I’ve got you covered. No doubt we have all heard that phrase and perhaps have used it on occasion. But what exactly does it mean. You step up to the counter to pay for your soda and candy bar and you reach into your pocket to pull out some money and you realize that you don’t have any with you ...read more
