Daily Devotional: Romans 12:1-13
After spending 11 chapters expositing the doctrine of God’s election to both unbelieving and immature gentiles in Rome, Paul finally begins to apply the doctrine. Therefore, since God is the one who chooses, calls, justifies, sanctifies, and glorifies—since He alone works for your salvation and not you—don’t be prideful. This is the first application, and…

Christian Contentment
Paul has instructed those married to unbelievers to remain with them. He revealed that God hates all divorce and instructed people to, instead of seek their own freedom, to love their spouses. In such a revelation, we discover that love is not about me seeking what is right for me but, instead, long-suffering with others…

Against Arrogance
Paul has been writing to admonish the local church toward maturity, which leads to unity. To this end, the church body is to regard her elders as servants of Christ set apart for their labor in the Lord, and the elders are to regard the church body as holy and worthy of their service for…

On Destroying the Local Church
Paul has made clear the responsibility of the church elders (pastors). They are to build upon the foundation of Christ, not using any other material but the Gospel to build up the body of Christ. Each pastor is responsible to work hard at preaching and teaching in a way that is faithful to the explicit…

Is It Okay To Make Vows To God?
Submit your questions using the contact page, on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. This question came up as we have been walking through Scripture together on Sunday mornings. We spent three Sundays preaching verse-by-verse through 1 Samuel 1. This is the story of God’s miraculous work in and through Hannah. While the main idea in the…

You Are Enough
When I was in seminary pursuing my Master’s degree, I remember signing up for courses one semester and, shortly after signing up for courses, going on staff at a church in the area. At that point I was working full time, third shift at a grocery store, Going to school full-time during the day, and…

The Bible Series, Episode 7 Interaction
In May, we started watching the Bible Series again. This time with our church family at Grace. I wanted to share a few reflections on each episode. Episode 7 In this episode, we see the appearance of the Pharisees. The Pharisees were a religious group who were devoted to the Law. They treasured the Scriptures…

Why God Uses People
I have discovered in this life that there are many people who sell themselves short. Because we live in a works-based society, we tend to be overly critical of ourselves and overly critical of others based on performance. We convince ourselves that because we don’t have a certain level of talent or skill, we are…

God Delivers for His Glory
Last week, we discovered or reminded ourselves of two things. First, that God is working all things together for His glory. We sometimes make the mistake of thinking that God is working for our glory. So, when things don’t work out for our glory, we, as slaves to depravity, point our fingers at God and…
