Beholding Bible Truth

Romans 5:6-11 (#18.2025.04.13)


Listen Later

Scott continues the study of Romans as he walks us through the idea that biblical doctrine isn’t meant to weigh us down, but to serve as scaffolding—lifting us up to see God’s character more clearly.

Scott explores foundational truths about God’s love, predestination, the timing of Christ’s sacrifice, and how God helps the helpless. He challenges us to think about those we help, and if we're being like Him when it comes to lifting others.

He also discusses foundational questions about God's sovereignty—even over evil—and the assurance we have because of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection. Scott reminds us that God’s love isn’t a fleeting feeling but a proven reality, demonstrated in Jesus. You’ll leave not just with answers, but with renewed hope, assurance, and confidence in the rock-solid promises of the God of the Bible.
