Romans 2:1-3:20

Yeah, being a ‘good person’ won’t get you into eternity. God is our righteous Judge. We look at Romans 2:1-3:20

Romans 3:21-31

Hey Gang,

This might be the most important teaching in the world!

Ok, that was a little heavy handed, and a touch dramatic. But honestly, it is the simply the BEST NEWS EVER. The offer of salvation through faith, and faith alone should be something that unrighteous humans should, and will, celebrate for all eternity. We are covering Romans 3:21-31.

Romans 4:1-25

Hey Gang,

It’s Romans 4:1-25 this time.

For all of you that watched our previous Bible study, I apologize if I moved too fast. Even though we only read eleven verses, I confess, we covered a TON of ground! I heard from a few people that it was a bit of a “drinking from a fire hose” evening. This might be the first time in the history of our Bible study that I think I went too fast!

Anyways, as mentioned last time, what we covered was the “thesis” statement about God’s New Covenant, a radical idea of salvation by faith. Now Paul is going to spend the next few chapters unpacking this idea, with the Old Testament precedent for it, and what the ramifications are for the Law in the light of grace. Thus, although in this video we cover all of Romans chapter 4, we actually cover less material than last week.

We’ll see that God’s plan of salvation goes all the way back to Abraham, which would blow the minds of a lot of the Jews whom Paul was writing to. It might blow your mind as well!

Romans 5:1-21

Hey Gang,

So if in our previous video you thought Paul went back in time to show how the precedent of Grace was evident in Abraham, this time he will take us all the way back to Adam! Did you know that another title for Jesus is “The Second Adam”?

But even better, if you have ever been afraid of “losing my salvation” you MUST watch, as we cover the assurance of your salvation! Really good stuff.

Romans 5:1-21.

Romans 6

Praise God! I have been raised to a New Life, and I am dead to sin!

But wait….

Then how come I still sin???

Did you know there is an excellent Bible explanation? We will actually be spending the next few chapters unpacking just how this works. This time we are covering all of Chapter 6, and it is going to blow your mind!

Romans 7:1-8:2

Let’s take a look at Romans 7:1-8:2 and the correct attitude to have about sin and temptation in our life. We look at what Paul wrote about struggling with sin.

Romans 8

Romans chapter 8 this time.

Do you love that song “In Christ Alone”? I particularly enjoy the line “No power of hell, no scheme of man, can ever pluck me from Christ’s hand.” That line is inspired by the 8th chapter of Romans. The chapter contains fantastic verses all about the security we have in our Salvation through Christ.

Romans 9 and 10

Hey Gang,

A couple of things: Despite my great boast that I would be able to finish three chapters in one teaching…didn’t happen. Turns out it is not all your questions and comments that fill up the time, it’s me! In any case, the topics went way deeper than I thought, and I did a whole bunch of extra study, so this time we cover chapters 9 and 10, leaving 11 for the next time.

By the way, I hope this goes without saying, but you can obviously watch these teachings however, and whenever, and at whatever pace you want. So grab your coffee, get comfortable, and enjoy diving into the deep end with Paul!

Aloha!

Romans 11

Hey Gang!

In this final section of a two-part series on Romans 9, 10 and 11, we get to watch even Paul himself struggle to explain the fate of Israel. Who is Israel now? And is his discussion of their salvation for the nation or individual Jews? Can Paul even figure it out? We wrap up this deep and confusing section of Scripture and present you with some possible explanations. Paul will end his part with an awesome declaration of praise, and I will end my section with…an Haiku poem!

Romans 12:3-13.

Hey Gang,

We are doing Romans chapter 12, verses 3-13.

Once again, it is full of great wisdom and advice, I’m sure you will enjoy it!
