The Jewish people were privileged and given priority in so many ways. God birthed the nation. They were brought forth by God from the barren wombs of Sarah and Rebekah. They were led by God out of Egypt. They had seen His power and might and grace. Even more than this, they had been given His Word. God had spoken to the nation and given them His Word on tablets of stone. They received so many priv...

Paul spends a lot of time explaining the sinfulness of man. It is the focus of our text this week and for the next several weeks. In my study, I have often thought to myself, why can’t we just get this in one verse? Why not just summarize it in a paragraph? Why three chapters drilling down on the sinfulness of man? Then the Spirit reminds me that until we have plummeted the depths of our sinfulnes...

We live in a difficult day. The moral decline of our nation is more rapid than ever. The sacred nature of marriage is collapsing. The dignity of man as made in the image of God is under attack. Life is no longer sacred. Truth has eroded into relativism. Our world is filled with self-indulgence and lies, and yet, God has seen fit in His sovereignty to give us the PRIVILEGE of serving Him at this ti...

Our passage this week brings us into some of the most controversial territory in all of God’s Word. More than this, we find a statement of judgment from God that is unrivaled in its severity and finality as we find a biblical explanation for the confusion of our world today. When God is rejected and exchanged for lies and idols, everything tends towards moral and spiritual chaos. Is there hope? Th...

If God is just and punishes sin, where is His wrath and justice against sin? The world sins and goes on about their lives. The answer to this question is found in the first verse of our passage this week. Romans 1:18 says, “The wrath of God IS revealed from heaven….” This means, any culture that rejects the Word of God by which they must be saved will experience the wrath of God. God will give the...

Have you ever experienced a moment in your life when you were ashamed of the gospel? We live in a culture and world that opposes the gospel message. In today’s culture, we often find ourselves in situations where the gospel is challenged, and we struggle to find our voice. The Roman culture was no different. The darkness has always hated the light. The gospel has always been challenged. Make no mi...

In my 20 years of ministry, I have never preached through Romans. It has been said that a faithful preacher will lead his congregation through Romans at least twice. As I begin my 21st year of preaching, I realized I had better get started on my first. Romans is critical to our faith. No other book of the Bible has had a greater effect on church history. Martin Luther’s study of Romans was the imp...

We have finally come to the end of 2 Samuel this weekend. I love the way the book ends. The Bible is written in such a way that each author, inspired by God faithfully records His Word, then passes it on to the next, continuing the divine narrative across generations. Every book is pointing us to one person who will die in one place for the sins of man. There are some points that you can’t miss wh...

God is both transcendent and immanent. The transcendence of God means that God is above, completely other than and independent from creation. God is infinite, sovereign and unchanging. God needs nothing, depends on nothing and owes nothing. He is “holy, holy, holy.” God is also immanent. The immanence of God means that God sustains, is involved with, and present within His creation. Sometimes thes...

One of the most powerful evangelistic tools at our disposal is our own personal testimony. In so many ways, our testimony is more valuable than a thousand apologetic arguments. People can argue with facts and details, but they cannot argue with your personal experience. In our text this week, David gives us his personal testimony of faith. He shares with us in vivid detail and descriptive poetry w...
