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.

Psalm 126

Sowing Tears, Reaping Joy

What is the Christian life supposed to feel like? Sometimes it can feel like a dream come true. Yet there are also times of persistent spiritual dryness and deep sorrow. In these times, the hope of the gospel enables us to sow our tears in such a way that we will reap an abundance of joy.

John 20:24-31

From Doubt to Faith

Thomas' encounter with Jesus risen from the dead is the classic account of doubt giving way to faith. But Thomas' faith was based on seeing Jesus face to face. How can we believe if we cannot see? Is the evidence for the resurrection convincing for us today?

Mark 15:33-39

The Death of Jesus

In the final three hours leading up to Jesus’ death, Mark records three things that show us the meaning behind what is taking place: a cry, a curtain and a confession. Each gives us an insight into why Jesus is the Saviour we need.

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.

Romans 3:21-26

Righteousness from God

This passage has been described by many as the most important passage in the whole Bible. It's the turning point in Romans where Paul begins to describe the greatest news ever – that in the gospel God has revealed the way he can declare the unrighteous “righteous”, while maintaining his own righteousness.

Romans 3:1-20

All Under Sin

This is a very confronting passage showing the pervasiveness of sin in humanity. It includes some outrageous statements like, "No one seeks God" and "No one does good". How can the Apostle Paul say such a thing? What about all the people who seem to be seeking God? What about all the good things unbelievers do?
