During 2025, we will be studying the 2nd half of Romans (8-16), 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. Small group material can be found here.

WELCOME

WORSHIP

Romans 8 has the glorious assertions that “God works together for good (along with us) for those that love God, and that nothing can separate us from the love of God. We have learned ‘those who love God’ is not a qualifier, but a description of who we are. But what are we to do about those who don’t believe, those who don’t love God?

Romans 9 opens with Paul’s anguish over unbelieving Israel. It’s not the first time Paul has shared deep emotions in the letter. Paul is starting a three-chapter discussion about Israel (chapters 9 — 11) and his desire for them to come to faith.

In this week’s text, he makes several assertions about God that are worth discussing. God’s word has not failed, and God’s election (selection of those who are saved) is part of the way things work. Our application this week will be how we are to approach our friends and family members who do not “yet trust in God.”

“ It is not as though God’s word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.” Romans 9:6
