There's No Comparison!

We are created in the image of God, but does that mean that we are like God? What is the comparison? Do we have His nature? Do we have His looks? Do we act like Him? Are we powerful like the Lord? Our text today is going to do a clear comparison between those who are “good” and God who is perfect. There is no comparison. God alone is truly good, and He alone saves us! Today we get to see how awesome that is, for in HIM we are very blessed—even blessed beyond comparison!

One Side and One Side Only

February 25, 2024 • Ed Eddingfield • Romans 6:15–23

Have you seen the movie “The Hunt For Red October”? It was a fantastic movie about a Russian submarine captain that desired to defect to the USA. As the U.S. fleets are closing in on him, he is asked to verify his intention to defect with a single radar ping. He asks his crew for “one ping, one ping only.” There was no going back from that point forward. Everyone would know what the intention was. Whether in battle for this world or the one to come, our intentions are important. We, as Christians, are called to pick a side…one side only! Are you ready to make your intentions known? Jesus is asking to be your Lord…One Lord Only!

He Lives; I Live!

February 18, 2024 • Ed Eddingfield • Romans 6:1–14

He Lives! He Lives! Christ Jesus Lives Today! Do you know the song? The great theology and doctrine of the Book of Romans comes to a point today! The gospel is the power to save (Rom 1:16); the salvation is so that we may transition from death to life! He lives and we too may live in Him! Wouldn’t it be awesome to live like it today! We can!

The Victory of Grace

February 11, 2024 • Ed Eddingfield • Romans 5:12–21

Have you ever received a gift that you didn’t want? Socks on Christmas? That one sweater? Have you ever given a gift that wasn’t nice? Perhaps you told a story that shouldn’t have been told, or gave someone a knuckle sandwich? Gifts are wonderful to receive when they are wonderful themselves, but not all things given are good. Fortunately, we have a God that only gives wonderfully perfect gifts – the best of them is the grace of Jesus Christ. In HIM there is Victory!
