So much going on in the world- Much of the headlines this week have to do with Israel, even the headlines about our city. Last week our study in Romans touched on this same topic. If Israel is a stage on which to show God's glory, what went wrong-- We'll find this out in the sermon today. And this same truth will search our own hearts as Jewish or Gentile Christians today. Are we living up to the light of His word-- Let's graciously encourage one another... Even more so as -we see the day approaching--
God is light- And as we reflect His light well we guide people to Him. THey glorify our Father for the light that He shines through us. This was one of the roles of the Jewish nation in the Old Testament and is our honor today as Christians. May we reflect well on the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob today. This sermon we will praise God as light and see how He shines light on His stage of the Jewish people. As He does, the satan rises up to destroy His stage. But God uses even that wrath for His good.
We felt an earthquake and observed an eclipse the past couple weeks. Do these signify that Christ will come this week-- What did He say about His second coming-- We'll look at His teaching and survey some of the other teaching on Christ's return as we consider the Scripture's perspective.
Friends are a blessing in life. At times you may find yourself among many friends and at times with just one or two close friends. Some may be stuck in exile on a remote island, or solitary confinement and yet enjoy a close friendship with the Lord Jesus Christ. In this message, we highlight what God teaches in His Word about friendship.
God shows no partiality at all- That is comforting. He will not judge based on our economic status, ethnicity, or natural abilities. But He will judge fairly. How will you measure up to His impartial judgment-- That is a central question in life and one that the BIble answers.
The Law convicts of sin, but the Gospel motivates repentance. It is God's kindness in Christ that builds us up and spurs us forward. In our own strength we become miserable failures. Through God's kindness we find abundant hope and peace. Let's meditate on His rich love and kindness in the Gospel---Here is a link to the slides- https---prezi.com-view-8f1BFNiL52GsFQbxqIvb-
God's Justice is amazing- It is comforting in that He will set the record straight. That is convicting as well- Let's learn about God's Gospel Justice from Romans 2-1-3 today.
As we shine the bright light of the new life of Christ, one area that is so important is our trustworthiness. We take our word seriously and come through with what we say. As you make promises, you deliver. --Thank God that He does this- He keeps His promises exceedingly abundantly above all we could ask or think- Let's praise the Lord this Sunday for keeping His Word to us. --IN this sermon we finish out Romans1.
Let's take a checkup ... a spiritual MRI to see how many of the old things are passed away in us. These 21 vices of a depraved society are extremely practical in detailing a heart that has wandered from Christ. Let there be light- The Light of Christ's Gospel in our life.

As we continue into the slide down into human depravity in Romans 1 we find a group the third time God hands over a society to Judgment... the handing over results in the danger of a disapproved moral compass.
As we continue through Romans 1, we find desires that are mis-aligned and spent on lesser things. Not just the lesser desirie of idolatry, but also the lesser desire for immorality. May the Lord give continue to -build us up on the most holy faith- as we go phrase by phrase through this Holy Word.
We've all been angry at one time or another. We become angry when something we love is threatened or harmed. We should love as God loves and we will be angry when God is angry.--Romans 1-18 shares how His wrath is revealed.
Have you ever been in trouble with an authority-- I guess all of us have been in trouble at one time or another. It's so great when you are able to get things cleared up. But when you know you are guilty and are waiting for the consequences of your actions it can be a stressful time- -We are all in that state by birth and the Gospel's third -unashamed- fact from Romans 1-17 will give us a deep appreciation that this is no longer the case because of Jesus Christ- Join us this Sunday as we praise God for justification-
Faith. We all have it. Without it, no one can please God. Do you have faith today-- Praise the Lord for it- Do you need more faith-- Ask the Lord for it. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world.- -This Sunday, the theme for our worship service is faith. We'll continue learning from Romans 1-16 why faith makes us unashamed.
What are your largest regrets-- Perhaps something that if it were known you would be ashamed. Thankfully God sees all these and waits for us to confess, forsake and learn from these failures. One thing that none of us should be ashamed of is God's glorious message. --What is it about the Gospel that motivates us not to be ashamed of it-- It has to do with its Power. Let's praise God for His power this Sunday. All Hail the Power Jesus Name-
The gathering of God's called out ones is a beautiful scene to Him- Called to gather is at the core of the meaning of the word -church.- It's not just beautiful, our gathering each week is also essential. - -The Lord knows that we need one another. As a body needs each of the other parts of the body, so you and I need each other. And as we gather, we build one another up in our faith. - -You need the church and the church needs you- That's the theme that we find here in Romans 1-10-12.
Happy Memorial Day weekend- This weekend we remember those who have fallen in battles past. At church, we will remember a couple of these prayer warriors of the past - Elijah and Paul. As we do so, we'll find principles to spur us along in this warfare.
God is compassionate -theme for Sunday- and calls us to trust His plans even when it does not seem loving. At times that trust is much more difficult than at other times.--Ruth and Naomi were called to walk through some dark valleys. And yet the Lord was their provider. This Sunday we will look at the example of Ruth in contrast to Naomi as an illustration of courageous faith in the face of circumstances that would cause most to become very bitter.
Faith- That's a great word. It encapsulates so much. . . the action of believing, what we hold on to as we believe, and how we desire to grow. Faith is also contagious. That was sure the testimony of the Roman church. Consider this truth from Romans 1-8.
