Men of Single Virtues – Romans 16:23

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

 I don’t know if you have seen it or not, so I bring it to your attention – Nearly all of the people mentioned in this chapter have only one thing mentioned after their name. There are a few exceptions, but Rufus was chosen, Mary labored, and Timothy was a...

Paul’s Parting Blessing – Romans 16:24

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

 I confess that I have borrowed this outline from C.H. Spurgeon. This is not his sermon, but it is his outline. And he certainly would never have begun any message with this kind of introduction. Sports FANS are prone to think that they can perform better on the field...

May God be Glorified in Us – Romans 16:25-27

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

 Unless Kraig and Rochelle visit, we usually only have one dog at our house. But that one dog has learned from an expert and is an excellent beggar. When Mom starts cooking a meal, his nose begins to work. By the time that the food is on the table, if his olfactory...

Establishing Power – Romans 16:25-27

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

 If you have glanced at the title to this morning’s message you might have read it incorrectly. It is not “Establishing POWER,” but “ESTABLISHING power.” Paul’s letter to the Romans concludes with a doxology. A doxology is an...

The Perseverance of the Saint – Romans 16:25-27

 My purpose this evening is to try to help you to see the difference between the preservation of the saints and the perseverance of those saints. That door is opened to us through this scripture, but there are many other scriptures as well. Most Baptists say that they...

The Obedience of Faith – Romans 16:25-27

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

 One of the problems with modern Christendom – including evangelical Christianity – is that so much of it is considered to be voluntary. This is not true of most non-Christian religions, and it isn’t true with basic Roman Catholicism. For them there...

According to the Commandment – Romans 16:25-27

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

 Some of you may be wishing that I’d hurry up and finish this study of Romans. For whatever reason – good or bad – you want to move on, and I understand. But you need to understand that I feel somewhat like a parent. For 18 or 20 years I have been...

God Only Wise – Romans 16:27

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

Paul is concluding this letter to Rome with a doxology. He is expressing his praise to the Lord, but as most preachers are prone to do, he interrupted himself mid-sentence. “Now to him that is of power to stablish you…to God only wise, be glory through...

Grand Central Station – Romans 16:27

Jan 14, 2015 | Romans

Have you ever heard of “Grand Central Station”? There are few adults who haven’t. I’m sorry to say that it doesn’t exist – at least it doesn’t exactly exist – or doesn’t exist anymore. The place in all the movies...
