Matthew 4:10b; 5:3-7,44; 6:25-33; 7:12; 25:44; 26:36-46 28:20 ; Luke 3:11; 6:27,31; 13:1-5 24:45-47, , Psalm 113:7-8; Galatians 6:7-8; Exodus 20:12 — Our modern context may look very different to New Testament Jerusalem. But as followers of Christ, we are called to imitate His example. In every area of life and every situation we face: What would Jesus do?
Hear from long term missionary to Mozambique, Steve Lazar.
Faith Is The Key
Romans 3:21-26; 4:1-3,9-12,16-25 — Having established God’s provision of justification for all, Paul turns to the ‘how’ - how exactly do we receive the justification we so desperately need? More than just believing, and nothing to do with earning, the key to our salvation is faith: leaning on and living from His unshakeable promises.

It Is Finished
Romans 3:19-26 — From the Garden of Eden to the present day, humankind longs to be ‘enough’. But as Paul makes clear, we have all fallen short and nothing we can get or do will ever justify us before a truly just God - nothing except His free gift: Through faith in Jesus, His righteousness is given to us. By His blood, the universal longing is ended. Through the finished work of the Cross, it is finished.

The Great Human Dilemma
Romans 3:9-18, 22b-25; 1:18-32; 2:1,17-24; 3:19-20 — Jew, Gentile, religious, secular; the great human dilemma affects us all: no matter how far we unchain our desire, it cannot bring true freedom. To the Romans and to us today, Paul’s message should hit like a ton of bricks. But, only by accepting that we are all equally broken, sinful, and depraved, can we receive the freeing grace that Jesus Christ freely gives.
