Romans 3:1-8: Righteous and Faithful

As we continue in Romans, Paul is right up front about the fact that God is righteous when He chooses to judge the unrighteous. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley shares what this means for Christians today in light of the Gospel.

Romans 2:17-29: By the Spirit and Not the Letter

There were those among the Jews who believed that having the law and circumcision gave them an advantage in the new kingdom. Paul argues against this towards the close of Romans 2.  In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourely shares how it is the Spirit that saves, not the Law.

Romans 2:11-16: No Advantage

Paul found himself writing to two different groups in his letter to the Romans. The first were the Jews, who had God’s Law. The second ere the Gentiles, who did not have it in its written form. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley explains that there is no advantage for either group; both need the saving work of Jesus.

Romans 2:6-11: Carrots and Sticks

We have a tendency as Christians to rely on our own works to please God. The problem is our own works will never meet the standard God has set for us. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley explains how we need to quit relying on what we do and rely on what Jesus has done.

Romans 2:1-5: Without Excuse

When we look on this world today, we see a lot of behavior that we as Christians condemn. In the beginning of the second chapter of Romans, Paul addresses the fact that we as Christians are often guilty of the very things we would condemn. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley reminds us we need to repent of the sins we commit, so we can be better equipped to help others see their sin and redemption through Christ.

Romans 1:26-32: Consequences

As Paul continues in Romans with his argument that men have turned against God, he breaks down the consequences of doing so. These consequences zero in on the sin of homosexuality, but they are not limited to this, as the text shows. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley breaks down what happens when we deny creator and worship creation.

Romans 1:18-25: The Wrath of God

As we continue into Romans, Paul introduces the concept of God’s wrath. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley explains what we need to know about the wrath of God and how it affects our world currently.

Romans 1:16-17: The Power of His Gospel

To many churches are ashamed of the Gospel. They either try to soften the blow so the message will be more readily accepted, robbing it of its power, or they try to add to it, robing it of its simplicity. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley shares why we do not have to be ashamed of the Gospel and why we should proclaim it.
