by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on July 6, 2025) As we approach the climax of Romans Chapter 8, we come to a very reassuring passage about the Holy Spirit and how He helps our infirmities. Don’t our infirmities threaten to overcome us in this life? Mine sure do, especially in my prayer life! But...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 29, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, “hope” is an essential concept for our assurance in the here and now. Biblical hope is a real thing, a confident expectation of good, based upon the finished work of Christ on the cross. We began to see yesterday...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 29, 2025) As we move on through Chapter 8 of the Book of Romans, we come to a precious statement by Paul: “We are saved by hope.” For those of us who are familiar with what Primitive Baptists believe about hope, we understand that “hope” is not...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 22, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, adoption is a central concept to Scripture.

Dead to Sin // Top 10 Themes from the Book of Romans (Part 4) // Ruben Remedios by Cuhow

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 22, 2025) The principle of “adoption” is central to the word of God. It applies particularly to our eternal salvation in Christ Jesus.

Dead to Sin // Top 10 Themes from the Book of Romans (Part 4) // Ruben Remedios by Cuhow

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, in order to experience the abundant life here and now, we must be led by the Spirit of God. There are many “spirits” in the world, most of which will lead us very far from the Kingdom of God!...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025) As we get back to our study in the Book of Romans, we are looking at two verses in Chapter 8 which deal with being led by the Spirit of God. It is important to understand that Paul is NOT speaking here of eternal life,...

The Gospel Manifesto in the Book of Romans Pt. 10 How God Cares for Me By Louie Marsh, 7-6-2025 One night I had a wondrous dream,One set of footprints there was seen,The footprints of my precious Lord,But mine were not along the shore. But then some stranger prints appeared,And I asked the Lord, "What have we here?"Those prints are large and round and neat,"But Lord they are too big for feet." "My child," He said in somber tones,"For miles I carried you alone.I challenged you to walk in faith,But you refused and made me wait." "You disobeyed, you would not grow,The walk of faith, you would not know.So I got tired, I got fed up,and there I dropped you on your butt." "Because in life, there comes a time,when one must fight, and one must climb.When one must rise and take a stand,or leave their butt prints in the sand." GOD CARES FOR ME   1) By constantly CHALLENGING me.   14  I myself am satisfied about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge and able to instruct one another. 15  But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God 16  to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:14-16 (ESV)   · Can I be PROUD of my work for Christ?   17  In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to be proud of my work for God. 18  For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to bring the Gentiles to obedience—by word and deed, 19  by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God—so that from Jerusalem and all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ; Romans 15:17-19 (ESV)   Proud = καύχησις - Root kauchaomai; boasting (properly the act; by implication the object), in a good or a bad sense :- boasting, whereof I may glory, glorying, rejoicing. Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.   “13But we will not boast beyond limits, but will boast only with regard to the area of influence God assigned to us, to reach even to you. 14For we are not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach you. For we were the first to come all the way to you with the gospel of Christ. 15We do not boast beyond limit in the labors of others. But our hope is that as your faith increases, our area of influence among you may be greatly enlarged, 16so that we may preach the gospel in lands beyond you, without boasting of work already done in another's area of influence. 17“Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.” 18For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.” (2 Corinthians 10:13–18, ESV)   “21…But whatever anyone else dares to boast of—I am speaking as a fool—I also dare to boast of that. 22Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they offspring of Abraham? So am I. 23Are they servants of Christ? I am a better one—I am talking like a madman—with far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless beatings, and often near death… 27in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure. 28And, apart from other things, there is the daily pressure on me of my anxiety for all the churches. 29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to fall, and I am not indignant? 30If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. 31The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying.” (2 Corinthians 11:21–31, ESV)   2) By Calling me out of my COMFORT ZONE.   20  and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else's foundation, 21  but as it is written, “Those who have never been told of him will see, and those who have never heard will understand.” 22  This is the reason why I have so often been hindered from coming to you. 23  But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you, 24  I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be helped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a while. Romans 15:20-24 (ESV)   · And always giving me opportunities to SERVE OTHERS.   25  At present, however, I am going to Jerusalem bringing aid to the saints. 26  For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem. 27  For they were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings. 28  When therefore I have completed this and have delivered to them what has been collected, I will leave for Spain by way of you. Romans 15:25-28 (ESV)   3) By knowing me INTIMATELY.   1  I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church at Cenchreae, 2  that you may welcome her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever she may need from you, for she has been a patron of many and of myself as well. 3  Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus, 4  who risked their necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks but all the churches of the Gentiles give thanks as well. Romans 16:1-4 (ESV)   28  And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29  yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30  But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31  Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?' or ‘What shall we drink?' or ‘What shall we wear?' 32  For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. Matthew 6:28-32 (ESV)   HOW SHOULD I RESPOND TO THIS?   4) By always staying focused on JESUS & HIS GOSPEL.   25  Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages 26  but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith— 27  to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen. Romans 16:25-27 (ESV)

The Gospel Manifesto in the Book of Romans Pt. 8: Engaging My Culture By Louie Marsh, 6-15-2025   Intro: 50 Years & Counting then 5 pictures about changing culture.   1) I engage my culture by overcoming evil by DOING GOOD.   14  Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. 15  Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. 16  Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. 17  Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. 18  If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. 19  Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” 20  To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21  Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans 12:14-21 (ESV)   · I respond to cultural rejection by HELPING THOSE  who hurt me.   14  Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. 17  Repay no one evil for evil, 19  Beloved, never avenge yourselves 20  To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink 21  Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good   ·  RESIST the temptation to always cheer people up.   15  Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.   · I focus on lifting up others NOT MYSELF.   . 16  Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight.   · I leave the bringing of justice to GOD.   20  To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21  Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good   2) I engage my culture by UNDERSTANDING authority.   1  Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. 2  Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. 3  For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, 4  for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. 5  Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience. 6  For because of this you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing. 7  Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed. Romans 13:1-7 (ESV)   · God instituted authority to stop ANARCHY.   · I must obey the authorities UNTIL & UNLESS they contradict God's Word.   18  So they called them and charged them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. 19  But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge, 20  for we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard.” Acts 4:18-20 (ESV)   · Yes, this includes NOT CHEATING on my taxes.   3) I engage my culture by living a life of LOVE.   8  Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9  For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10  Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. Romans 13:8-10 (ESV)   · Get & stay out of debt ASAP so you'll be free to serve God.   · The moral/sexual law of God is fulfilled by RESPECTING others.   4) I engage my culture by ACTING  like Jesus not them.   11  Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed. 12  The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. 13  Let us walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in quarreling and jealousy. 14  But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. Romans 13:11-14 (ESV)

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on March 30, 2025) Paul begins the seventh chapter of Romans by reminding us that, as children of God, we are dead to the Law but married to Christ. In doing so, he is dealing with the constant struggle that regenerated disciples have between the two ditches of legalism...

Send us a textI believe The Book of Romans stands as the most  profound of all the biblical letters, meticulously crafted by the Apostle Paul to address the pressing question: How can a righteous God make unrighteous people righteous? This exploration unfolds through a structured progression, revealing the depth of God's redemptive plan.1. Righteousness Needed (Romans 1:18–3:20)Paul begins by establishing the universal need for righteousness. He portrays humanity's descent into sin, highlighting that both Gentiles and Jews are under sin's dominion. This section culminates in the assertion that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23), emphasizing that no one is justified by works of the law.2. Justification by Faith (Romans 3:21–4:25)Transitioning from the problem to the solution, Paul introduces justification by faith. He explains that God's righteousness is revealed through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe (Romans 3:22). This justification is a gift of grace, made possible through the redemption in Christ Jesus. Paul uses Abraham as a prime example, illustrating that righteousness was credited to him through faith, not works.Desiring God3. Righteousness Accomplished (Romans 5–8)Having established justification, Paul delves into its implications. He contrasts Adam's act, which brought condemnation, with Christ's act of righteousness, leading to justification and life for all men (Romans 5:18). Believers are united with Christ in His death and resurrection, symbolized through baptism, and are called to live as instruments of righteousness. Paul acknowledges the struggle with sin but assures that through the Spirit, believers are empowered to live victoriously, with nothing able to separate them from God's love (Romans 8:38-39).4. Righteousness Vindicated (Romans 9–11)Paul addresses the complex relationship between God's sovereignty and human responsibility, particularly concerning Israel. He affirms that God's word has not failed and that not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel (Romans 9:6). While Israel pursued righteousness through the law, they stumbled over the "stumbling stone," Christ. However, Paul holds hope for Israel's future salvation, emphasizing God's mercy and the mystery of His redemptive plan.5. Righteousness Practiced (Romans 12:1–15:13)Concluding with practical exhortations, Paul urges believers to present their bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God (Romans 12:1). He outlines how righteousness manifests in daily life: sincere love, honoring others, being zealous in service, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer. Believers are called to live in harmony, overcome evil with good, and submit to governing authorities, embodying the transformative power of the gospel in all aspects of life.SummaryRomans masterfully articulates the journey from recognizing humanity's unrighteousness to embracing God's provision of righteousness through faith in Christ. It underscores that righteousness is not achieved by human effort but is a gift received by faith, leading to a transformeSupport the showFor an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on January 19, 2025) As we conclude Chapter 6 of Romans, we find a very important verse: “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Beloved friends, there is a difference between “wages” and a “gift”!
