A Word To The Wise On Righteousness Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 26, 2013

God calls us to live righteous lives. But Romans tells us that no one is righteous. So, God wants to me to be righteous. I want to be righteous... but no one is righteous so I can’t be righteous. How can that possibly make sense?

Faith’s Essential Content Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 3, 2024

Romans 4:23-25 provides a concise statement of the Christian faith: Lordship of Christ, his sacrificial death on the cross, and his resurrection. Salvation depends on believing these essentials. Religions that proclaim Jesus as a good teacher or prophet but deny these tenets are false religions.

Intro We have been examining Abrham’s faith as a model for the kind of faith God is looking for in you and me. Abraham’s faith was a saving faith. After describing his faith, Paul says in Romans 4:22: “And therefore ‘it was accounted to him for righteousness.’” Paul has grounded his teaching on the ...read more

Both A Slave And Free

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Aug 5, 2025

We all want freedom, but in reality, we all serve a master. We are either God's servants or slaves to our sin. Join us this morning as we dig into Romans 6, and Paul's call to serve the Lord.

Both a Slave and Free GOOD MORNING. Words can be a problem. They don’t always convey exactly what you are thinking, and that’s one reason Jesus uses parables to teach concepts and ideas rather than just saying words. Not only does it stick better, but it conveys feeling that goes beyond the words ...read more

Adoption

Contributed by David Scudder on Aug 21, 2010

The word "adoption" is an action noun, so it acts like a verb, i.e. the Holy Spirit performs the act of adopting. In Roman law an adopted child had the exact same position and privileges as a natural born child, e.g. legal standing, or inheritance.

Purpose: To show what spiritual adoption is and what a great privilege it is.
