I give thanks to my God upon all the remembrance of you, always, in every supplication of mine for you all, with joy making the supplication, for your contribution to the good news from the first day till now…" (Philippians 1:2-5 Young's Literal Translation)

![]() When we were together last time, we heard a story about what grace doesn't look like and it wasn't pretty. Today we will look at what the Apostle Paul has to say to us about what a life of grace ought to look like (what our aim ought to me). It's more than a little challenging and convicting. Please jot down the passages quoted so you can read them in context later. Be Blessed! ![]()
![]() When the Lord began to speak by Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea: “Go, take yourself a wife of harlotry And children of harlotry, For the land has committed great harlotry By departing from the Lord.” (Hosea 1:2) What lessons can we learn from a prophet and a prostitute? Give this a listen from beginning to end and you will find out. YouTube ![]()
![]() "Yet all is of God, Who conciliates us to Himself through Christ, and is giving us the dispensation of the conciliation, how that God was in Christ, conciliating the world to Himself, not reckoning their offenses to them, and placing in us the word of the conciliation. For Christ, then, are we ambassadors, as of God entreating through us. We are beseeching for Christ's sake, "Be conciliated to God!" For the One not knowing sin, He makes to be a sin offering for our sakes that we may be becoming God's righteousness in Him. (2nd Corinthians 5:18-21 CLNT) *The music in the intro to this program is "Song of Reconciliation" by Susan Ashton. ![]()

Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have dealt with you for My name’s sake, not according to your wicked ways nor according to your corrupt doings, O house of Israel,” says the Lord God. (Ezekiel 20:41,44) ![]()

![]() "But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead. I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death."

![]() "As through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life. For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous."

![]() Today as we continue our study through the book of Romans we are going to see some radical truth shared by the Apostle Paul. How radical? Check this out: "But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness." What? If God justifies the ungodly... That means there is hope for me and you! If you are blessed, challenged, or encouraged by what you hear, please click "like" below and please share this page with your friends. |
