Expository Sermon on Romans

INTRODUCTION

            Paul not ever falls short to give functional submissions founded on the doctrine discussed. A Christian will not distinct doctrine from duty. Learning should be converted into living. In this part we will study relationships. To have a right connection with God we should have a right connection with our young individual man (1 Jn. 4:20). .

 

DISCUSSION

Our Relationship to God (12:1,2) - The Christian should be dedicated to God. This dedication engages three steps:

You give God your body (1) - It is our privilege to glorify and magnify Christ in our body (Phil. 1:20,21)

We are dwelling forfeitures for the Lord - in the likeness of Isaac and the Lord Himself.

We are to present our bodies one time and for all time. Why such a commitment? It is the only answer that supports what God has finished for us. It is our sensible service. .

Our natural forces are devices to construct with, not playthings to play with or tools for fighting to battle with. We should work simultaneously and use our natural forces to make crop (Gal. 5:22-26). .

Loving participation (9-16)

Love is the circulatory scheme of the religious body, it permits constituents to function in a wholesome way. This love should be dependable modest and deferential (Phil. 2:1-4).

If we assist Christ, then we will be are against by Satan. We should stay steadfast. (12)
