Sermon from September 6

Having Peace with God

Romans 5: 1 - 11

1. God is holy. He can have no fellowship with sin.

2. We are all sinners and that makes us God's enemies, and his wrath remains on us. Romans 3:23, John 3: 36

3. But Jesus paid for our sins and offers peace with God.

4. Justified means "Just if I'd never sinned."

5. Reconciled means we have become friends again.

6. God proved how deep his love is when Jesus died for sinners.

7. We are saved from God's wrath.

8. What's our part in this? Romans 4:24: We must believe in Him (John 3:16). This means we put our trust and confidence in him that he alone can save us.
