In Romans 4 we get a picture of what faith really looks like. Abraham is a model of faith because his faith rests on the promises of God. Peter explains.
This week we continue our series in Romans. It is so instinctive for us to try to justify ourselves to do good work so that God will count us as righteous. Paul explains in Romans 3-4 that this is not the case at all.
It is so common for us to be driven by fears and anxieties instead of faith in God. This week we looked at Psalm 27, that helps us with this problem.
There are aspects of the gospel that are looked down upon today, just as in first century. In Romans 1:16-17 Paul gives a clear summary of why he is not ashamed of the gospel, and the reasons are still true for us today. John explains.
Individualism is the default mode of thinking in the west today. We have a tendency to see ourselves more as individuals than as members of a group. While the gospel is personal, it is not individualistic. We see in Romans 1 that the Gospel works in community. John explains.
