25th
Acts 13:13 - 49
A Hard Sell
Romans 3:20 - 26
The answer of justification
We are saved for it.
Grace is unearned.
This is the why of what Paul is doing.
Revealing
The Kingdom of God.
So why do we find it so hard to evangelise?
Is it because we
- Are fearful?
- Lack confidence?
- Are terrified by possible rejection?
Compromise or Confrontation
A safe passage to mediocrity, or a dangerous route to getting the job done.
Paul was talking about radical transformation.
But there is no advance for the Gospel without confrontation.
There is no compromise, for Paul is
- Bold
- Prepared
- Equipped
- Assured
- And takes the Gospel further.
Revealing God's story through Scripture.
vs 17 - A chosen people
vs 19 - A promised land
vs 22 - A faithful king
Raised from the dead
Psalm 2
A plan for justification and redemption was not recognised.
By some
But what about...
A plan for both Jews and Gentiles
We must hear more!
