Beholding Bible Truth

Romans 8:3-11 (#28.2025.11.02)


Listen Later

Scott continues studying Romans, exploring the concepts of hope, assurance, and confidence grounded in the gospel message, focusing primarily on Romans 8 and connecting it to the broader context of Romans 9. Scott Keffer shares his personal journey of coming to faith, the transformative impact of Evangelism Explosion, and the simple yet profound message of the gospel: what we cannot do, God has already done through Jesus Christ. He discusses the law's purpose, God's righteousness, and the essential role of the Holy Spirit as a seal, promise, and pledge in the life of a believer.

Scott also unpacks key theological themes, such as justification, the nature of Christ as the fulfillment of the law, and the ongoing process of spiritual renewal despite the decay of the physical body. He emphasizes the assurance that comes from belonging to God and the practical evidence of the Spirit’s work in everyday life, urging listeners to focus on internal renewal and the hope of resurrection, rather than external circumstances.
