  • Christ Alone, Not Only Christ

    Christ Alone, Not Only Christ

    Salvation is in Christ alone. There is no arguing that fact, and why would you want to. Each one who is in Christ is saved by grace alone through faith alone. Our natures are set against God from birth. We are in darkness. We must each be born again to even see the kingdom of…

    This week, we get to begin our study of Paul’s letter to the Romans. This letter presents us with a holistic view of the Christian faith. It is an umbrella commentary on the Old Testament, observing Christ in light of the Old Testament, a proclamation of the Gospel, and a brief application of that Gospel…
