Summary

In this sermon, Dr. Michael Easley discusses the concept of shame and its implications in the context of faith and the gospel. He emphasizes that while society has moved away from shame, it is important to recognize the power of the gospel, which is the means of salvation for all who believe. Dr. Easley explores the nature of salvation, the righteousness of God revealed through the gospel, and the centrality of faith in receiving this righteousness. He concludes with an invitation to embrace the gift of salvation and the transformative power of faith in Christ.


Takeaways

  • There is no shame in the gospel because it is the power of God to save anyone who puts their trust in Christ.
  • Paul emphasizes that salvation through the gospel is not earned by works but given freely by faith, making all people equal before God.
  • Shame surrounding the gospel often stems from pride, fear of misunderstanding, or the perception that the message is foolish.
  • Faith in Christ means trusting in a person—not in one’s own effort, religion, or moral standing—to do what we cannot do for ourselves.
  • The gospel reveals the righteousness of God, which is both a divine attribute and a status that God gives to believers.
  • Righteousness before God is not something we achieve, but something God declares over us through Christ, like a judge declaring the guilty not guilty.
