Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Paul reminds us in Romans 2:11–16 that God’s judgment is perfectly impartial and fair—unlike human courts, it cannot be swayed by wealth, influence, or appearances, but is based on truth, knowledge, and obedience. Whether through the law written in Scripture or the law written on our hearts, all people are accountable before God, and only through faith in Christ can we stand acquitted.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

In Romans 2:6–10, Paul teaches that salvation is by grace through faith, yet final judgment will be based on works—not to earn salvation, but to prove it. The righteous seek God’s promised glory, honor, and eternal life through patient goodness, while the wicked live for themselves, reject the truth, and face God’s wrath.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Paul warns that it’s far easier to see and condemn the sins of others than to recognize our own, and that doing so reveals a dangerous hypocrisy that presumes on God’s kindness instead of being led by it to repentance. God’s patience is not apathy toward sin but an opportunity to turn to Him before His righteous judgment is revealed.

The Book of Psalms
Psalm 73

Psalm 73 takes us on a journey from envy to awe, as Asaph wrestles with the prosperity of the wicked and the apparent unfairness of life, only to have his perspective transformed in the presence of God. His story powerfully illustrates the truth that envy looks outward and leaves us empty, but worship looks upward and makes us whole—reminding us that the nearness of God is our true and lasting good.

The story of David and Goliath is not about us overcoming our obstacles but about how Jesus has killed the real Goliath—sin and death. He is the true and better David. We are the Israelites who were saved by God’s King. We are called in to His victory and salvation for the glory of His Name.

The story of the flood in Genesis 6–9 shows God's grief over the deep corruption of humanity, His judgment through the flood, and His mercy in preserving Noah and offering a new beginning. Ultimately, it points forward to Jesus, the better Noah, who takes God's judgment upon Himself at the cross and gives us hope for a future re-creation free from sin and death.

Samson is not a story about a strong courageous hero but how we compromise to sin. We cannot be our own hero, we need a savior to free us from the slavery of our sin. Samson is a flawed, impulsive figure who reflects the unfaithfulness of Israel—and of us. Though chosen and empowered by God, he continually breaks his vow and does what is right in his own eyes. Where Samson failed in strength, Jesus triumphed in weakness.

Genesis 1 to 3 is not just a children’s story; it is our true origin story that shows us who God is, who we are, and why the world is broken. From the beginning, it points us to the hope of Jesus, who came to make things right and bring us back to God.

Old Testament stories are fun and fascinating, but we’ve gotten into a bad habit of making them moral tales just for kids. In reality, all of these stories point to Jesus and exist for the sanctification of all believers. Jonah is not about a fish but about a merciful God who makes a way of salvation for the worst sinners through the true and better Jonah—Jesus.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Paul shows that sin is not just about sexual immorality but includes things like envy, gossip, pride, and cruelty, which affect everyone. His goal is to reveal our deep need for the gospel and call each of us to personal repentance and faith.
