As we come to the conclusion of a 14 week sermon series on Romans 8, we want to know the answer to the question that Romans 8 presents: how can we be “more than conquerors” in a world of suffering and groaning? What does it even mean to be “more than a conqueror”? (Romans 8.35-39) November 26, 2023.

In a post-Christian, secular world, we were promised to be set free from the oppressive notion of a divine being who revealed moral laws that we must obey. If this were true, humans should be set free from the pesky notion of guilt. But guilt strangely persists despite all of our efforts to get rid of it. The good news of the gospel is that the gospel defines the reason we feel guilty and provides a gracious solution. (Romans 8.33-34) November 19, 2023.

Romans 8 ends with the resounding gospel hope that we can be “more than conquerors” in a world where we are suffering and groaning, but how is this possible? The apostle Paul leads us to this conclusion through a series of questions, the answer to each is like a faith staircase leading to victory. This morning, we look at the first two steps: God is for us, and God’s love for us has been settled once and for all through the cross. (Romans 8.31-32) November 13, 2023.

The Golden Chain of Five Links, as it has often been called, provides the powerful gospel foundation for knowing that God causes all things to work together for good. Even as these five links raise many questions about the tension between the sovereignty of God and the freewill of man, they do provide the glorious truth of God’s sovereign work of love and grace in the life of those who are in Christ. (Romans 8.29-30) November 5, 2023

Romans 8.28 is one of the greatest promises in the Bible, yet we have allowed it to slip into the arena of positive thinking. Today, we strive to liberate this great promise from the prison of positive thinking and set it free to run in the freedom of the gospel as presented in Romans 8. (Romans 8.26-30) October 29, 2023.

There is good news for those who are in Christ, suffering in this present time and groaning under the futility of creation. God has not left us alone in our groaning! The indwelling Spirit helps us by praying with us, but interceding for us according to the will of God. How does this key truth revolutionize how we pray? (Romans 8.26-28) October 22, 2023

Contrary to popular thinking, the eternal hope for followers of Christ is not that we get to “spend eternity in heaven.” The gospel hope is actually much greater! Romans 8 leads us to hope for that which we have not yet seen, when creation is liberated from futility and the redemption of our bodies. Immortal and imperishable bodies enjoying the new earth where God makes all things new. (Romans 8.18-25) October 15, 2023.

One worldview question we all must wrestle with is “Why is this world so broken?” Romans 8 provides the answers to this question with gospel depth. Not only is this world broken as the consequence of sin and the presence of the evil one, but God subjected creation to futility on purpose to lead sinners to salvation and to keep the redeemed hoping for that which is yet to come. (Romans 8.16-25) October 8, 2023

Because we are in Christ, we have an obligation to put to death the deeds of the flesh BY THE SPIRIT. Just as we are justified by grace through faith, so are we sanctified by grace through faith. In this sermon, we discuss some practical advice from Puritan Pastor John Owen on how to mortify the flesh through the Spirit. (Romans 8.12-17) September 10, 2023
