Philippians 3:1-11

Knowing Jesus

What do you value most in life? Is it your achievements, your relationships, or something deeper? Philippians 3:1-11 shows that a Christian is someone who has found that nothing compares to the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus as Lord. Once you know Jesus, you want to know him more.

James 2:14-26

Faith that Works

How do you know if your faith in God is real and living, or dead and useless? This is not a theoretical matter. It’s a question of whether you are truly saved. In his provocative style, James pushes us to take a deeper look at our lives and see if the evidence for real faith is really there.

Romans 9:30-10:21

Confessing Christ

Paul continues to explore why some people believe the gospel and others don’t. Here we see that many people assume that the way to get right with God is by keeping the demands of his law. But the good news is that righteousness is not gained by our efforts, but by God’s provision in Christ.

Romans 8:31-39

Eternally Secure

For those who trust in Christ our eternal security is guaranteed. Romans 8 concludes with a celebration of our security by testing it against our deepest fears. Is there anyone or anything that can seperate us from the love of God? When we look at the cross of Christ, we have a sure answer.

Romans 6:1-14

Died to Sin

If the gospel assures us that God responds to our sin with more grace, won’t that just encourage us to keep on sinning? That’s not the logic of the gospel. Instead, the gospel tells us we have died to sin. What does that mean? How did it happen? And what difference does it make to our lives?

Romans 5:12-21

In Adam or In Christ

Paul continues to explain the way the gospel works by showing us how all of humanity is represented by one of two men: Adam or Christ. In Adam there is sin, condemnation and death. But in Christ, there is grace, justification and eternal life. Which one represents you?

Romans 5:1-11

Unshakeable Confidence

How can you be sure God loves you? How can you be certain that when you die you will enter straight into heaven? How can you be sure suffering will not destroy you along the way? This passage answers all of these questions (and more), and the answers centre on one thing: justification by faith.

Romans 4:13-25

Faith Alone

One of the blessings of justification by faith is the assurance of salvation that it gives. By looking at the life of Abraham, we’ll consider why justification by faith alone is the only basis for real assurance, and what kind of faith it is that receives justification.

Romans 3:27-4:12

Boasting Excluded

Boasting is building confidence based on your performance, especially if you can out-perform others. One of the effects of receiving justification by faith is that it squeezes out all boasting. This sermon considers why it does that, and what effect that can have on how we relate to other people.
