27: Romans 9:30-10:21
Description
Join Pastor Clay and special guest Adrian Coetzer, the Executive Pastor for Disciple-Making at Johnson Ferry Baptist Church. On Episode 27 of the Wordsmith podcast, they dive into Romans 9:30 –10:21 .
They turn to the deep theological truths in Paul’s letter, focusing on faith as central to righteousness. Adrian shares his foundational Bible study approach of asking, "What does this tell me about God?” This leads to a rich discussion on the danger of taking verses out of context or adopting a “me-centered” view of scripture. They conclude by exploring Paul’s masterful use of Old Testament references in Romans 10 to highlight God’s enduring faithfulness and His call for all to believe in Jesus.
