Sermon Points:
Scripture Reference: Romans 10:4-17
Paul cares so deeply for his fellow Jewish countrymen that he writes an extended explanation of exactly HOW they are to come to faith, if they do. In so doing, he provides modern believing people with a new way of thinking about the challenging topic of evangelism.
Sermon Points:
Scripture Reference: Romans 9:1-8, 14-20, 30-33
Paul entertains a question about God’s faithfulness to “bring us all the way home” that is potentially undone by Jewish rejection of the Gospel. The answer takes us deep into the mind of God and his purposes in election and a “love that will not let me go.”
Sermon Points:
