The Good News of Therefore We dive in today to a great chapter of scripture. Some of the great theologians throughout history, including Augustine and Luther, viewed Romans as the single most important book a Christian should learn. In it is contained the gospel, the bad news that we need a Savior and…

Please open your Bibles to the eighth chapter of Paul’s epistle to the Romans, and read with me starting in verse 5: For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For the mind set on the flesh…

As we begin our study this morning, I want to remind you that we are looking at the first of six great arguments which Paul has provided to prove beyond doubt the truth of his great statement in Romans 8:1 , “Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” And I trust you recall…

Introduction I have heard it said that Romans 8 is the greatest chapter in the Bible. I don’t know if I would go that far but… It is a great chapter. It tells the believer that he or she is a child of God whose life is totally overshadowed by the protective hand of a loving, heavenly Father. We will…

1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: 3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible…

Is God worth my time? How much of my time am I willing to give to God? Once a week? Once a day? All day? Every moment of the day? What if we were to be challenged to focus on God all day? Before and during every conversation, or decision? Often times we say that we don’t see the things of God, but how…

TEXT: GALATIANS 2:11-16 | THE ONLY TWO RELIGIONS INTRO EXPLANATION : Over the past couple weeks we have read as Peter came to Antioch and at first seemed to confirm the position that Paul had taken and the message he had preached. But as we saw, somewhere along the way a group of Jewish religious leaders…

We come once more in our careful study of word of God given through the apostle Paul in the eighth chapter of his letter to the Romans, where we have been studying these last several weeks the grand statements of the gospel to be found in verses 3 and 4 , For what the Law could not do, weak as it was…

Introduction There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak…

1 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the…

1 Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God. 3 For we have spent enough of our…

Last week we discussed the truth that we are all addicted to something. And we need to admit that we are powerless, that in our own power our lives are unmanageable. Until we admit this, we will keep living broken, miserable lives. As Paul wrote: For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that…

You and I have to Listen for God’s Leading The beginning of anxiety is the end of Faith: and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety. George Muller 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory…

16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. 18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not…

If the question where to come up...”what is truth” we would undoubtedly get a million different opinions of what that truth is, based on every mans opinion and often, not according to any kind of evidence or proofs whatsoever. In today's society, people stand on and hold true to their own truth. Many…

Abraham: Following God's Promise

Intro: Over the past month or so, we've been in a season of transition, focusing on topics related to current events… Based on the feedback we've received, it seems this has been a meaningful opportunity for many to gain valuable insights and a biblical perspective on the events shaping our world over…

Once again we are looking this morning at the 3rd and 4th verses of the eight chapter of Paul’s epistle to the Romans, where we read, For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did : sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned…

There are many people calling themselves “Christian” who have a critically flawed view of what it means to be a Christian, on account of failing to understand just what it means to say “therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” For example, there are those whose view…

Renewed And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform…

There is a certain challenge when working as carefully and as intimately through Scripture as we do here in Christian Life Hour, in that such an examination can at times be in danger of missing the general theme or context of the larger passage. For indeed, many have failed to see the line of Scripture,…
