CuRRENT SERIES

During Spring & Summer 2025, we will be resuming our study of Romans (10-16), Paul’s most thorough theological masterpiece.
We will discover how the ‘new way of the Spirit' connects us to the righteousness of God revealed by faith.

WELCOME

WORSHIP

Paul has explained that there are several applications for “living out God’s good and pleasing will.” First, we are to use are unique gifts to serve others. Second, we must love sincerely, not taking revenge, that is God’s responsibility.

In Romans 13, Paul instructs the Christians to also be subject to the governing authorities. This is how society is meant to work. His reasoning is based on God’s authority. It is the Lord himself that put leaders in positions of power and governments are meant to do God’s will. Governments ought to reward good behavior and punish bad behavior.

All systems of government are flawed, some are downright criminal and evil. Yet, we have the enormous privilege of living under the U.S. Constitution in the society that has promotes democracy and freedom around the World. So how, are we to live out Paul’s instructions? How do Jesus’ words “all authority has been be given to me” frame our understanding?

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Romans 13:1-2 NIV
