Episode 12: What is the secret to rejoicing in suffering? Romans 5:1-5 27.09.2019 6:02

Romans 5:5 "And hope does not disappoint us because God has poured out His love in our hearts by the Holy spirit whom He has given us." There are two responses we often take to suffering: "Why?" or "Help!" Why is it that we get mad at the one who can help us the most? Even in your suffering God loves you and has your best interest at heart. We can run to Jesus in o...

Episode 11: Suffering produces hope. 26.09.2019 5:35

Romans 5:3-4 Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.

Romans 5:3-4 "Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope." Paul says we are to rejoice in our suffering. He doesn't mean faking it. He's not talking about putting on a plastic smile and pretending everything's OK. He's not saying be a Pollyanna and deny rea...

Episode 7: Standing firm in the presence of God Romans 5:1-5 22.09.2019 4:14

Romans 5:2 "Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege (grace) where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God’s glory." We not only have peace with God, but access to God. Notice the word STAND , Paul didn’t say we have access by faith into his grace where we now sneak in, or quickly race through before we get zap...

Episode 6: The War is Over! Romans 5:1-5 19.09.2019 4:36

Those of us who are in Christ have PEACE WITH GOD! The War is over! Hostility has ended! The War with God is over, and this is an important fact for us to know!

Almost 30 years after the fighting had stopped! He was on a remote island in...
