There seem to be two different types of people including Christians. Those who follow the law, and those who break it. Those who are very legalistic and those who you might say like to test the waters so to speak. I don’t know which of those two you lean towards, but it’s not far from any of us. We usually will be staunch rule keepers or rule breakers.

Today we are getting back to Romans and we are going to Chapter 7. Previously in chapter 6, we read about grace, and Paul asked some important questions. Because we are under grace, are we to continue in sin so that grace may abound? Then again in 6:15, Paul asks shall we sin because we are not under the law, but under grace? Paul quickly objected to ever thinking that. No, by no means! Absolutely...

Join us today as we have special guest, Living Logo's, with us!

Last week I talked about how we are to be dead to sin. We have been brought from death to life, and we are made alive in Christ. And sin should not reign in our life anymore. That’s how we used to live, but those former things we don’t belong to anymore. Throw your membership cards away. You don’t belong to that club anymore. It’s dead, buried, and not to be resurrected. You belong to Christ now,...

Paul begins this portion of his letter (Chapter 6) with a question. Having just said, in chapter 5 that the law was given so that the trespass might increase, and where sin increased grace abounded all the more. And what I shared last week was that God’s grace is always greater than our greatest sin. So, as we acknowledge our sin we may turn from it and be led to Jesus and receive eternal life. No...

Today is a message about hope and grace. The main theme of this section is hope for those who trust in Jesus. Adam brought sin and death into the world, but in Christ, we have hope and grace. The gift is not like the trespass. The trespass of the one man (Adam) brought death, and now through Jesus’ righteousness brings life. Through one man’s disobedience, many were made sinners, through one man’s...

I want to talk with you about friendship—friendship with God and friendship with people—especially with people who are different from you. Real friendship happens when we move toward the people we are most tempted to avoid. God has moved toward you! Today, I want to share the good news that God has moved toward you. God has made you His friend.

Today I want to talk about how we can rejoice when we run into problems and trials. Now that sounds weird, but in vs. 3, Paul says we can even find joy in the hard things, the difficulties, and hardships. Why? Because God is at work, developing endurance, character, and hope in us. 1 Peter 1:6-7, and James 1:2-4 also say that we can rejoice in our problems because God is at work in them building o...

Thank for Joining us today!!

As we read from chapter three today there is a continuation of Paul speaking to the Jews regarding their practices of the Law, and God’s righteous judgments. Paul asks several questions at the beginning of this chapter. First of all, he says, what advantage is there to being a Jew? He said much in every way! What advantage do they have? Paul carefully explained in Romans 2 that the possession of t...

What we read in Romans 2 today was Paul addressing their hypocrisy. They who were teaching, and bragging about the law, were actually dishonoring God because they were doing the very same things. In their criticism of the Gentiles and their uncircumcision, they break the law and act like they were never circumcised. Because as Paul was saying, a man is not a Jew if he is only one outwardly, or has...

Today we are continuing our series in Romans. We are actually still just getting started and last week I spoke on the first 5 verses of Romans 2. In reality, from chapter 1 through the middle of chapter three Paul was writing just this introduction just to talk about sin and to get people to understand how sin affects us all, and we are all sinners in need of a Savior. Without God, we will fall in...

In other words, God has a great desire to save people from sin and death and judgment. And so he acts in history to provide a gospel; good news, which if anyone will put their trust in it, they will be saved. Paul explains later, in Romans 3:24-26, what God has done in history, namely, he sent his own Son, Jesus Christ, into the world to live a perfectly righteous life and to die in the place of s...

Jill Perkins - Worthy of It All

Over the last 21 of preaching sermons and going through different sermon series and books of the Bible I have never done a series on the Book of Romans. I have considered it many times and prayed about it but never felt I was supposed to until now. As I have been talking about our theme for 2023 “Together on Mission,” this book has so much that Paul wrote about God and the gospel message. In reali...

It’s not easy when we have been praying for mental and physical healing, It’s not easy when we have laid in bed for years crying and praying for our prodigal children to come home to the arms of the father. It’s hard to have faith that he is the provider when the bank accounts and bills say otherwise.  How do we move forward when we feel like God is not listening to us? Like our prayers are j...

Have you ever been put off by someone? How about, have you ever put yourself off? Usually, we are put off when we are disappointed, we lose interest, or we become disgusted. Being put off is different than just putting something off, like delaying or procrastinating, but you can be put off by someone putting you or something off. Get it? Since the beginning of this year we have been talking about...

This New Year I have been speaking about the theme of being together on Mission, and it is my prayer that we all discover and step into the call and commission God has given us to do. We need to be a people of prayer. Colossians 4:2-6

We are all commanded to love God and love people, and we are all commissioned to be witnesses of his love, his power, presence, and his Word. Therefore it is essential that we pray to receive the baptism and daily fillings of His Holy Spirit. When we live on mission we live our life on purpose with a conscious and prayerful intention of sharing the gospel with everyone around us. As Jesus said, we...
