The Importance of Knowing our Sin

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans
We continue our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written—Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. Today, in Romans 7:7-13, Paul dives into the relationship between God’s Law (given to Moses) and the nature of sin. What was God’s purpose in giving his Law? How should we view it? What role does it play in our lives?

Dead to the Law, Serving in the Spirit

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans

We’re back in our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written—Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. Today, in Romans 7:1-6, Paul continues to unpack why God’s free grace, in Jesus, does not promote, nor encourage, sin. In fact, properly understood, Jesus’ grace forges a bond of belonging that leads to new Spirit-dependent, fruit-filled lives.
