STEAK AND POTATOES (Part 8) • ”Greater Purpose” • Barry Bandara

• This Series: This 12 week series will look at the major themes in the book of Romans. This Epistle provides the fullest explanation of the gospel in the New Testament. It pulls no punches while describing man’s condition, the cause and effect of sin, and the transformational power of the gospel.

 

• This Week: It is so easy for us to focus on the pain in our lives, relationships, and finances and we end up taking our eyes off of Christ. When this happens, we will live on a Merry-Go-Round of WHY's which will produce the absence of hope. The apostle Paul helps us take our eyes off of our suffering and to focus on the future glory God has for us. Often, our sufferings are part of God's divine purpose in our lives.

 

Key Phrase: “If God is for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31
