Self-Righteousness: A Silent Killer
Romans 2:1-16 | It is easy to read the end of Romans 1 and think, "Yeah, go those ungodly and wicked people, Paul!" And then you turn to Romans 2. In Romans 2 Paul goes after the self-righteous person who is equally defiant to the gospel. Self-righteousness is dangerous. Deadly. It is a silent killer because it leaves its suspect thinking they are righteous because of their externals all the while living with a dead heart inside. We must reject a facade of righteousness of our own making and receive the righteousness of Christ that comes by faith. This message serves as a "self-righteous detector" in our life to turn us to the righteousness found in the hope of the gospel.

Wrath Revealed (Part 4)
Romans 1:28-32 | In Romans 1:18 Paul said, "The wrath of God is revealed..." He said is revealed, not will be revealed, but God's wrath is revealed. There is a present nature to God's wrath toward the ungodly and unrighteous. How so? How is God's wrath being presently poured out on the unrighteous. The answer is what we find in Romans 1:24-32, and it has to do with the repeated statement, "God gave them up..." God's wrath is being revealed against the unrighteous in that he is giving them over to what they want. What are the three things mentioned that God gives the unrighteous over to? Today we pick it up with the third of these statements, the unrighteous given up to a debased mind.

Wrath Revealed
Romans 1:18-23 | Paul has given us his thesis, his big idea, in Romans 1:16-17. Now he begins his beautiful, air-tight, logical unpacking of that thesis. We now embark on the beautiful journey to see Paul unpack the glorious gospel of God. But where does he start? He starts where much of our contemporary culture tends to avoid when talking about God. Paul begins his gospel-unpacking with a look squarely at the wrath of God revealed against the ungodliness and unrighteousness of man. We will make our way through Romans 1:18-23 by unpacking four questions to help us understanding the God's wrath revealed.

Unashamed
Romans 1:16-17 | That great locker room pep talk kind of passage that gets us fired up for the gospel. That calls us to an unashamed life built on the gospel. But do we understand why we are not ashamed of the gospel? Have we looked deeply at what Paul says here as to the reasoning for his unashamedness of the gospel of God? Only when we see these things in this passage will our locker room passion for the gospel transcend into boldness on the fields of lostness in our actual day to day lives.

Introducing Romans (Part 2)
Romans 1:1-7 | Who are you? Why do you exist? Whoa, those are some pretty big questions. When you introduce yourself, what are the important things you say that describe who you are? When you think about your "life's work", what comes to mind? In the greeting to this letter we learn how Paul describes who he is and we see this major purpose of his life that captures why he is writing this letter to the Romans. As we look at these truths and get introduced to this letter, it will help us define who we are as well and this great purpose we have here to the glory of God.

Despising God's Grace
Jonah 4:1-11 | God is so gracious. He has lavished his grace on us, and we like that. Sometimes, though, he lavishes his grace on people who have hurt us, we are struggling to forgive, or frankly we just don't think deserve to be treated very graciously by God. As God poured his grace on Nineveh, Jonah got angry. Jonah's heart struggled with the grace poured out on such wicked people. As we look at Jonah 4 this week, we will see that God's grace extended to those we find hard to love can either harden or soften our hearts. Jonah's heart is hardened, we want our hearts to be softened...God's word can show us how

Revival

From beginning to end, we see God's grace at work to pursue the hearts of those far from him or those running from him. In Jonah 3, we will watch revival sweep over the city of Nineveh, and from this will see four realities of revival. These four realities will prepare us for a revival in our own heart, posture us to be ready for revival, and will lead us to pray for revival.

The God-ness of God: The Holiness of God
Isaiah 6:1–13 | God is holy. Those three words have weight. In the words of AW Tozer, "God’s holiness is not simply the best we know infinitely bettered. We know nothing like the divine holiness. It stands apart, unique, unapproachable, incomprehensible and unattainable. The natural [person] is blind to it. They may fear God’s power and admire His wisdom, but His holiness they cannot even imagine. Only the Spirit of the Holy One can impart to the human spirit the knowledge of the holy.” Throw the book of Isaiah, let's approach the unapproachable, attempt to comprehend the incomprehensible and attain the unattainable.
