Doers of the Law

Romans 2:2-2:29

September 15, 2024 • Pastor Kevin Canterbury • Romans 2:2–29

Give

The covenant between God and Abraham was outwardly marked by circumcision, but circumcision did not make Abraham righteous, rather, his faith in God was credited to him as righteousness, before he was circumcised. It is better to be an uncircumcised gentile who does what the law commands, than a circumcised Jew who knows God’s law but disobeys it. Knowledge, works, and family heritage won’t produce righteousness in us apart from Christ, only the Spirit’s work to conform us to the image of Christ can produce righteousness in us because we have a changed heart.

Called According to His Purpose

November 10, 2024 • Pastor Mat Miller • Romans 8:18–39

God’s will is not thwarted by the evil plans and actions of men and spiritual forces. What He purposes will come to pass and those He foreknew and predestined to be His own, He calls, justifies, and glorifies, conforming them in to the image of Christ. There is nothing that can come between God’s elect and the love of God in Christ Jesus.

God’s Sovereignty & Our Assurance

November 17, 2024 • Pastor Kevin Canterbury • Romans 9:1—10:4

Fellow Heirs with Christ

November 3, 2024 • Sherri Van Fleet • Romans 8:1–17

The righteous requirement of the law has been fulfilled in us through Christ’s atonement and we are not under condemnation. The body of death is passing away and the Spirit of God has taken residence within us and will also raise our mortal bodies to life. God’s magnificent plan to justify us through the death of Christ has not only saved us from His wrath, it’s also granted us adoption as children of God, fellow heirs with Christ through His suffering and glory.
