06 Romans 5:1-11 The Hope of the Gospel
What practical personal importance is it that we’re justified? Is this all theological argument? Or does it mean anything on a day-to day level?
05 Romans 4 The example of Abraham
The Apostle Paul argues in Romans 4 that everyone who will ever know God must follow the example of Abraham. The question is what is that example exactly?
04 Romans 3 Objections Overruled
The disease of sin so damages the heart that nothing short of a heart transplant will cure the disease. Have you tried topical cures like serving the poor, church attendance, charity and bible study without submitting to actual conversion?
03 Romans 2 God’s Wrath and the Religious
The early chapters of the book of Romans are like a courtroom drama where Paul acts as a prosecuting attorney, systematically proving the guilt of the human race in its rebellion against God.
02 Romans 1:18-32 God’s Wrath and the Pagan
If you were to ask the average person on the street whether God exists and who He is, what do you think you’d get?
01 Romans 1:1-17 The Power of the Gospel
The book of Romans will change your life. Many scholars have claimed that Romans is the most important letter you’ll ever read.
What is Tithing?
Is the tithe still applicable today? Does God really care how we spend our money? Can I wait until I can give cheerfully? Ken Elzinga answers these questions.
Parable of the Friend at Midnight
The parable of the Friend at Midnight does not promise that God will meet our every need or give us everything we ask for. Instead it teaches that God will give us the ultimate gift: righteousness.
Parable of the Talents
The Parable of the Talents is the last of three parables Jesus tells during a private discussion with the disciples about the end of the age. The parables focus on two themes: stay alert and persevere.
Parable of the Wise & Foolish Virgins
The Parable of the 10 Virgins is in a series parables Jesus tells his disciples privately about the end of the age. The parables focus on two themes: stay alert and persevere. The kingdom of heaven has a door that can and does close.
Parable of the Vineyard Workers
This parable could be titled the “Parable of the Compassionate Employer.” No one in this parable is underpaid. The complaint is from those who are justly paid and who cannot tolerate grace being given to others.
Parables of the Widow & the Judge; Pharisee & Tax Collector
These two parables in Luke 18 (The Widow & the Unjust Judge and the Pharisee and the Tax-gatherer) deal with prayer. But the underlying theme is how we achieve justification.
