52. Romans 5:9-11 | Final

Calvary Chapel Elk Grove

Pastor Phil Ballmaier

5-15-24


Tonight Pastor Phil continues in Romans, Chapter 5. Romans 5 is an amplification of the last 2 words of Romans 4: “Our justification”—and explains two basic truths: ‘The Blessings of Justification’; ‘The Basis for our Justification.’


When we are saved by faith in Christ, He has also made us justified and pure in the eyes of the Father. Jesus made the way for Him to look at us through the finished work of Jesus. This means not only can we have a relationship with God, but we are also saved from the wrath of sin... and our eternity has been made secure by Jesus.  


Is it because we are good? Or because we are perfect? Absolutely not - its' because He is, and when we choose Him as our Savior, we take on His righteousness. We are sinners saved by grace. His sacrifice shows us that His love is higher than the greatest heights, and deeper than the deepest depths. We are justified by faith, not of ourselves, lest one of us should boast. 


***

Paul chose Rome for a reason when he went out to preach. Firstly, because God had sent him, but because Rome was a central 'point of the world' as 'all roads lead to Rome'. So if he shared the Gospel there, whomever received it would carry God's Word, and the testimonies of Paul and the work they'd seen done out into the four corners of the world.


Often referred to as the Gospel according to Paul, and the greatest book ever written, Paul's letter to the Romans will become our focus as Pastor Phil continues to lead us through the Word of God.  


Calvary Chapel Elk Grove is a non-denominational fellowship located in Roselle, a northwest suburb of Chicago in Illinois.
