    The decisions we make in haste brings to the fore front, our pride, and ego that can and will cause sin to over power our better judgement.

    When we give our word, we are to stand-by it. James tells us that our Yes be yes and our No to be no. But what happens when we make a decision that turns out to be wrong? Do you continue in the wrong or do you change your mind? Many of our decisions would be different if we had slept on them over ...read more

    This is the first message from a series over Romans 6-11. This series examines the new live we have under God's grace. This message looks at how God moves us from a life under sin to a new life under grace.

    In the first five chapters of the letter, Paul presented a picture of our position before God. Although the picture was quite dismal, he let us know that there was hope for our situation to be changed.

    Just because we're saved by grace, that doesn't give us a license to sin. In this lesson we'll expound upon Paul's words in Romans 6:1, "Shall we continue to sin that grace may abound?"
