  • Living By Faith

    Contributed by Paul George on Sep 29, 2003
    based on 11 ratings
     | 3,006 views

    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.

    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. Unless they mean that justification at the last day, the claim is not only impossible it is contradictory. It is not a believer in ...read more

  • Freely Forgiven

    Sinners have always been saved the same way! By faith! Abraham and David are Biblical examples of this fact.

    Freely Forgiven Rom 4:1-8 There is a surprising resistance to the message of “justification by faith.” Not infrequently I have been challenged by people who have said, “Do you mean to tell me that if a murderer–rapist repents and believes at the last minute before he dies he will be justified by ...read more

    Paul takes his critics back to the OT to reveal that justification through faith is not some Pauline idea but Gods right from the begining.

    ROMANS 4: JUSTIFICATION THROUGH FAITH IS NOTHING NEW. • HAVE YOU EVER HEARD SOMETHING NEW FOR THE FIRST TIME AND IT HAS JUST BLOWN YOUR MIND AWAY? MAYBE IT HAS BECOME UNCOMFORTABLE, BECAUSE IT IS CHALLENGING ALL THOSE PRECONCEIVED IDEAS AND BELIEFS YOU HOLD. WHAT YOU HEAR DOESN’T FIT INTO YOU ...read more

  • Righteousness

    Contributed by Lou Nicholes on Nov 22, 2004
    based on 10 ratings
     | 7,489 views

    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.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: James Dobson said, "When I went to my old high school in Texas I found my tennis trophies thrown away in the trash heap to make room for new ones in the trophy case. It made me realize that all human accomplishments are really nothing but trash that will not stand the ...read more

  • Flesh

    . 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

    The "ledger of life" has the debit side filled with sins...the sheet must be balanced.

    Faith Accounting 101 Romans 4:1-8 * Institutions of higher education have a system of numbering their classes which allows the student to know the difficulty (in theory) of a class.

  • Abraham's Faith

    based on 2 ratings

    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

  • Abraham Believed God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 5, 2016
    based on 18 ratings
     | 11,637 views

    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

    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

  • Good Works And The Gospel Series

     | 5,633 views

    My good works are to be a response to God’s grace for the purpose of pointing people to Jesus

    Last year when I decided to preach through a portion of the book of Romans each year for several years, I had to decide on an overall approach to that series of sermons. At one end of the spectrum, I could have followed the example of several pastors who have chosen to preach one or two sermons per ...read more

    A priceless inheritance awaits those who trust in God’s promise

    Sixty–seven year old Tomas Martinez was living on the street in Santa Cruz de le Sierra, Bolivia, when he was approached by police officers who had good news for him. His ex-wife (whom he had abandoned years earlier) had died and had left him her fortune of $6 million. However, Martinez ...read more

  • The Audacity Of Simple Faith Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Feb 15, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,192 views

    Abraham didn’t have much to go on - God’s promise. But what Abraham did, when he did it, and through what agency speaks volumes to the Jew and Gentile alike how to have trust in a God you cannot see.

    Despite the good news that God gives new life free of charge, we humans have a hard time accepting such a gift. We, by nature want to earn or buy what we get. For the Roman Christians reading Paul’s letter, that would also have been true. In fact, many of them were Jewish Christians, and thinking ...read more

  • Your Turning Point

    Everyone life needs a turning point. Abraham found his when he chose to believe the promise of God. He just believed and was counted as set-right-with-God.

    Your Turning Point I want to share a very simple yet very powerful message for your life tonight. It does not matter where you find yourself in life. It does not matter where you have been or what you have done in life. It does not matter what mistakes that you have made in the past. It does ...read more

  • Heads Or Tails

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 8, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,324 views

    The old argument between Paul and James, faith or works, is really two sides of the same coin. Both are needed for a church’s life to be whole. Preached on a Sunday when members were asked to sign up for various ministries.

    The funny thing about arguments is that two people can use all the same information and can come out on exactly the opposite ends of the argument. Two different people, just because they are different personalities, can read the same data, hear all the same pros and cons, examine all the same ...read more
