Redemption Hill Church

There is a strong warning against self-righteousness in this passage, but it ends with a vision that is filled with hope. With God there are no lost causes. He is working to save all people for our good and His glory. This is a glorious promise that God is not finished with you, or me, or anyone else. Join us to hear the hope we have in Christ.

This passage shows us the way that the gospel has advanced from the very beginning as God’s people have been sent to proclaim the good news of Christ so that others will hear and some will turn in belief and repentance to embrace new life.

After establishing God’s sovereignty in chapter 9, this chapter turns firmly toward human responsibility in salvation. Romans 10 is intensely practical and personal for us, exposing that our passion alone can never save us. But salvation is easily accessible to everyone.

As we continue to explore the theme of God’s sovereignty in salvation, Paul raises three important questions for us. Is God just? How does God still hold us accountable if He is sovereign? And is God fair? These are important questions to consider. As this text works to provide answers it digs deeply into the stories and consistent theology of the Hebrew Bible, our Old Testament. We will work together to walk through this important passage and to see that there is a great source of hope and peace for us, which is welcome in times that seem to be absent of both.

This Sunday we continue with Romans 9:1-13. Romans 9-11 is a very controversial section of Scripture. Some would say that the chapters are an unwelcome intrusion into the letter the Apostle Paul wrote. I think the next few weeks will show us that they are important both to the letter to the Romans and to us today. This week’s passage shows us the reality of God’s sovereignty, a theme that we need in the midst of our current circumstances.

Join us as we learn from Philippians 4:10-23.

Join us as we learn from Philippians 4:1-9.

Join us as we learn from Philippians 3:1-21.

Join us as we learn from Philippians 2:1-30 and see what it looks like to live in unity. 

Building on the theological foundation that secures the reality that we know that God is working all things for our good, this passage goes on to raise the questions that plague every one of us. What about opposition we face? What about our unmet needs? What about accusations? What about condemnation? What about the dangers and suffering all around us that threaten us? Can any of this threaten to separate us from God’s love? Can anything take His love away from us?
