What does the united church do?
Saw last week what genuine unity is - a church growing together in right relationship wtih Jesus that builds each other up, and through their obedience brigns Glory to God.
illustration: unity but without goal or ambition
What will our lives as a church look like in practice?
What will be our focus and vision and heart?
As come to end of Romans, this morning want us to see simple call for us as a church - right response to powerful gospel.
Live out the gospel together.
Have our bible reading - see what you notice about the different peopel Paul mentions, what are we told about them (apart from their strange names)
Points
United in ministry (v1-16, 21-23)
Greetings represent Jew and Gentile, men and women, slave and free, rich and respected and every day Christian, all united under gospel of grace as one church in Rome
Paul lists a number of odinary Christians who “work hard in the gospel”
Ministry isnt just for the Pastor and staff, but for all who claim that Jesus is Lord.
Church together are to be in ministry, using gifts God has given, living on mission on Sunday and in the week, in the workplace and wherever they are.
United in truth (v17-20)
We are to defend the truth at all cost.
Refrence to false doctrine primarily.
Church in Rome hasn’t face it yet, but Paul is aware of other chruches that have been decieved by false teachers and the subtle ways.
(Galatians?)
Danger today - me centred Christianity.
Bible quotes convieniently.
Focus on God’s love for you and your greatness and prosperity.
Young Christians easily fooled.
Celebrity Pastor culture.
warning against TD Jakes, Steven Furtick, Joel Olsteen, Bill Johnson, Brian Houston, Joyce Meyer.
Good experience, good feeling, no discipleship, no unity.
All about me.
destroys unity and when tested causes us to fall away.
helpful in Romans 16:19
United in praise (v25-27)
Doxology is simple clear response to the gospel.
