50. Romans 5:4-5 (5-1-24) | Final
Calvary Chapel Elk Grove
Pastor Phil Ballmaier
5-1-24
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.’
Tonight Pastor Phil shares how we can see God's hand in our lives and that He uses various situations and trials to produce in us His attributes. That because we've been justified by faith, He equips us to withstand tribulations, and in it He produces perseverance; and character, and through it—hope. We can be thankful that God knows what we need, and when we need it to grow in Him! May we draw on His strength and cling to Him so that He may do His perfect work, in and through us.

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.
