    The main point of this sermon is to emphasize the importance of unwavering faith in God's promises, as demonstrated by Abraham and Sarah, and the gift of justification we receive through faith in Jesus Christ.

Now let's look at the full Scripture passage from Romans 4:13-25: [Read passage] With this Scripture in mind, let us begin with a prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for ...read more

     | 701 views

    Paul proves through Scripture that Abraham was not justified by works.

    4:1 “What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh?” Let’s look at this verse, as all the others, one word at a time. “Then” is “therefore” in this text. Based on all Paul has told us about sin, righteousness, judgment – by the way, the three things Jesus said ...read more

     | 1,191 views

    Five practical benefits of understanding Romans 4 are shared. The theme of justification by faith is contrasted with justification by works which is characteristic of false religions and cults. The grace teaching in Romans 4 is essential in evangelism and forms the foundation for Christian living.

    The exposition of Romans 4:1-3 examines Abraham's justification by faith. Paul supports his position that Abraham was justified by faith (not works) using Genesis 15:6 as his text.

    Intro In Romans 3:28 Paul came to this all-important conclusion: “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.”i In this context, to be justified means to be declared righteous before God.ii The Greek word translated justified (dikaioo) is a forensic or ...read more

    How is a lost person, being dead in sin, to cross over into a state of being made alive? By embracing Abraham's mind set, found in Romans 4:18.... transitioning from a SELF-hope [impossibility] to a GOD-hope [expectation]!

    OUR TEXT Abraham’s Hope in God, Perfected in God Romans 4: 18, 20-22. [Abraham] (18) Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken [Gen 15], So shall thy seed [offspring] be….

     | 1,488 views

    Message deals with the imputation of sin to Christ on the cross, where divine justice was served, and the imputation (crediting) of Christ's righteousness to those who put their faith in him. The practical benefits of this are addressed.

    Intro Have you ever read something, and when you finished, you asked yourself, “What did I just read? What did these paragraphs say?” A common reason for that is we did not know what some of the words meant, so we just skimmed over them. There is a word in our text today that is tempting to skim ...read more

    4:5 “But to him who does not work but believes on him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness.” Nothing you can do. Remember Jesus’ parable of the vineyard?

    What a glorious message it is that we who are destitute and poverty-stricken in God’s sight, can be chosen to become SONS OF GOD and HEIRS and JOINT HEIRS with Christ. We have been adopted into the Father’s family. All this is thorough Calvary. What wonderful blessings!

Over these next three Sundays, we will be focusing our attention on this one single doctrine, because a correct understanding of God’s grace is at the center of our faith. It is absolutely foundational. A clear, ...read more
