Saving Faith, Ceremony, And Spiritual Growth 35:32

How are we saved by God? The answer lies in faith in Christ alone—trusting in His sacrifice and His promises, and turning to Him in repentance, not relying on our works or rituals. This past week, we explored Romans 4:1-12 and learned about saving faith through the example of Abraham. He wasn’t saved by his works but by his faith, showing us that f…

How can we be made right with God? This is a question that many religions try to answer. Perhaps you might sense that there is brokenness & wrongness in the human race. How is that to be fixed? How can human beings be made right with our perfect Creator? Our passage last week, Romans 3:21–31, shows us how. Through the sermon, we were reminded of th…

In the sermon on Romans 3:1–8, we learnt a new term — ‘diatribes’! Chris took us through Paul’s series of questions and answers (diatribes) that he used to address questions that might arise in response to his teaching about the gospel.Paul’s instruction helped us ponder as a church: Do we value God’s Word as much as Paul did?

Is this you? Do you have the outward signs of a believer but lack the inner faith?On Sunday, we were confronted with this piercing question by Kyle as he preached through Romans 2:25-29.

Talk is Cheap 27:25

27:25

“Talk is cheap” — the title of Andy’s sermon this week was apt for the passage: Romans 2:17–24. Like the religious elites that Paul was addressing, we may puff ourselves up by saying all the right things that Christians ”should say” and feeling very secure in our faith as a result. But do we actually live out our words in our actions? Paul reminds …

On Sunday, Andy took us through the remainder of Romans 1, covering verses 18–32. We learnt how God, and His character, is knowable to everyone through the natural world, and therefore there is no excuse for the sinful ways that we live, in denial of truth.

There is pain and fallenness in our world, and God does not call us to pretend like all is well. We all have tears for all that have gone wrong, for all the pain that we and the world go through. We all long for a home that is free of these. The book of Daniel is essentially a reminder that God is still in control even when his people are still in …
