Gal 3:15-29. What purpose does the law serve? If the blessing to Abraham is by promise and justification is by faith, then why does the law do? Paul teaches here that the law reveals our sin and need that we would come to Christ by faith. 

Gal 3:1-5. The false teachers (Judaizers) in Galatia were challenging Paul’s gospel of grace. Paul masterfully asks the Galatians 5 rhetorical questions, relating to their own experience, that vindicate the grace gospel. What personal experience do we have to show how the grace gospel holds up?

Colossians 1:3-8. Do you remember the day you first heard about grace? When it became clear and you really understood it? How powerful that day was. Even within the 4 walls of some churches today people have not heard “the word of the truth of the gospel”. Oh we are thankful for the gospel of […]

Gen 28:12-19. How easy it is to live a natural life and to settle only for the earthly. But we are designed for more than that. We have a heavenly and holy calling. Jacob renamed LUZ to be called BETHEL, calling a common place Holy. We must learn to do the same.

Heb 11:30-31.Josh 6:1-25. The author of Hebrews tells us that the Jericho walls came tumbling down because of faith.
