Romans 7:7-25

War Within

Have you ever wondered why you do things you wished you didn’t do? It’s not just those caught in addiction who feel this way. Even the Apostle Paul admits, “The evil I do not want is what I keep on doing.” Why do we experience this struggle? Does being a Christian make any difference?

Romans 7:1-6

Died to the Law

The role of God’s law in our lives is complex. The law tells us how to live God’s way, but it feels like a burden that we cannot live up to. Rather than fixing our sin problem, it condemns us. What are we to do? The gospel releases us from the burden and condemnation of the law to serve God in a new way.

Romans 6:15-23

Slaves of God

Often people think of the Christian life as a choice between giving up your freedom and obeying God, or retaining your freedom and living your own way. But is living your own way really freedom? Or is true freedom found in knowing the one “whose service is perfect freedom”?

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.

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.
