There are three institutions that God has ordained in this order: the Family, the Government, and the Church. In Romans 13, Paul describes the role of government and our responsibility to it. In today’s study, Pastor Gary answers four important questions about government: 1)What does the Bible say is the primary role of government? 2)Why should we submit to the governing authorities? 3)When is it OK to disobey governing authorities? 4)How did the Bible shape the United States government?

The first eleven chapters of Romans are DOCTRINAL, but the last five chapters of Romans are very PRACTICAL. And one of the themes Paul stresses in the last five chapters is our personal responsibility regarding how we treat one another. In fact, Paul uses the phrase “one another” ten times in the closing five chapters to help us understand the practical ways we can properly treat one another. How we treat one another is a direct reflection of our relationship with Christ.

Whenever we face a major decision in life, it’s important to discern God’s will on the matter. What is God’s will for where I live? Who I marry? What career path I take? The questions are endless. And God has a perfect will for your life. But even if you don’t hit the “bullseye” and discern His “perfect” will, there is still grace for God’s children. He will redirect your path to move you in step with His will as you humbly seek Him. In today’s study, Pastor Gary shares 5 principles for discerning God’s will.

Does God predetermine some people to go to Heaven and others to go to Hell?  Did Jesus die only for the Elect (those whom God decided to save)?  Does man have a free will to choose Jesus, or is that God’s choice?  Pastor Gary answers these questions and more in today’s teaching on predestination and election.

Are the Jewish people God’s “chosen people”? And if so, why have most Jews not accepted Jesus as Messiah? Has the Church “replaced” Israel in terms of promises God made to her that now belong to the Church? Pastor Gary answers these and other questions in today’s study from Romans 9-11. In these three chapters, Paul addresses the subject of Israel and the Jewish people and how they fit into God’s redemptive plan.
