Welcome everyone to Sacred Sunday! We cordially invite you to join
us for our regular Sunday Morning Bible Study! 11:00am PST. Romans
Chapter 5 Even though Paul looks down on Christians bragging about
their accomplishments, he does say that there are a few instances
where it's good to get a little boastful. Basically, Christians can
brag about what God has done for them and their hope that one day
they'll be hanging with him in Heaven. Note: the word is "hope" not
"certainty." They can also brag about their suffering because, hey,
what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, right? Plus, who
doesn't want to hear a good
I-was-almost-stoned-to-death-for-my-faith story? Oh, and of course,
Christians should talk up what God has done for them by sending
Jesus. This is a big one. Christians should actually probably be
talking about this a lot. Paul certainly does. Just think, if
God loved the whole world back when we were just huge jerks to him,
just think how much he digs us now that we're walking the straight
and narrow. He definitely hearts us now. A lot. Okay, but how can
just one person's actions (i.e., Jesus' death) change the whole
world? Well, Paul tells us, just look at Adam. Okay, we're
listening…See, silly Adam just couldn't resist taking a little
nibble of that fruit (even though that was literally the one thing
God asked him not to do). And because Adam couldn't follow a simple
direction, he and Eve and everyone else that came after them got
served one big eviction notice for Paradise. But then God sent
Jesus into the world. And Jesus gave up his life to wipe away all
the sins that came before him. All in a day's work. So one guy
brought sin and death into the world. Thousands of years later,
another guy brought salvation and eternal life to the world. Well,
we know which one we're addressing the thank you card to.
