Romans: We are all Sinful
Jun 30, 2024 • Pastor Maggie Pate
This sermon unpacks Romans 1:18-3:24, emphasizing the universality of sin and humanity's desperate need for God's salvation. Rather than leading to despair, this realization should foster unity and relief, acknowledging that everyone falls short of God's glory. Paul confronts both Gentile and Jewish forms of sin, dismantling any pretense of self-righteousness. God's wrath, a manifestation of His perfect justice and love against sin, underscores the gravity of our actions. Ultimately, recognizing our inherent sinfulness and inability to meet God's standards should lead us to repentance and humble reliance on Christ's redemptive grace. This transformation cultivates a community that authentically reflects the Gospel.
