Paul addresses three objections to the doctrine he has set forth in Chapter 2 and proves again the universal need of Christ and the righteousness of God received by faith alone.
Paul continues to show how all people have desperate need of the gospel and that Jewish pride in their knowledge of God actually only amplifies their condemnation if they do not do all they know is right and true.
In Romans 2:12-16 the Apostle Paul explains how it is there is no partiality in God's judgment. His judgment is not based on what people have or do not have in regard to God's specially revealed law, His judgment is on the basis of sin. This illustrates why the gospel is relevant to all men.
In the prologue to his Gospel, the Apostle John introduces us to Jesus. This morning we consider how Jesus reveals the same glory as Moses beheld, but in Christ that glory comes more fully and comes to stay.
Paul continues to explain the relevance of the gospel to all mankind by proving the universal condemnation of all mankind outside of Christ. Having shown why the Gentiles are condemned and God's wrath is manifested upon them, he now shows the moralistic and religious Jews are no better off.
The Apostle John continues to introduce us to the Lord Jesus Christ as the Word and now turns his attention to how the Word was made known in the world and the response of those to whom He was made known.
The Apostle Paul continues to explain his zeal for the gospel as he explains its relevance to all mankind. He begins with an indictment of the Gentiles in particular and then explains how the wrath of God is manifested against them because of their refusal to worship and thank God. The gospel is the only refuge for those under the wrath of God.
We begin a new series in the Gospel of John. John begins with the premise of Jesus' divinity and then proceeds to explain how the Eternal Word came into Creation.
