Lesson 7: “Victory over Sin

 Subscribe to SST 

 

"God was in Christ reconciling us to Himself, and in the cross it is that He gives us His life. Failure to realize this is the reason we have failed many times in the ‘crosses’ we have borne. We bore crosses separated from Christ, and therefore the power in the cross was only the power in our own lives. It was nothing."

Lesson 6: “Expounding the Faith

 Subscribe to SST 

We must pause a moment and look at that word agape. It’s the Greek word for love, but it is an entirely different idea than we know naturally. The love we have by nature loves people who are nice; God’s agape loves people who are mean and bad. Our love depends on the beauty or value of the person whom we love; God’s love creates value or goodness in the one whom He loves. There’s where our hope lies!  ~ Robert J. Wieland

Lesson 5: “Justification and the Law

 Subscribe to SST 

"In other words, justification by faith is the experience of seeing the uplifted Saviour and appreciating the fact that “if one died for all, then were all dead” (2 Cor. 5:14); i.e., all would be dead if One had not died for all. This effective gift of God’s amazing forgiveness in Christ is given to the sinner and it reconciles an enemy’s heart to God so that the soul receives the atonement."  Paul E. Penno

Lesson 4: “Justified by Faith

 Subscribe to SST 

"Christ took upon His sinless nature mankind’s sinful nature, and at the cross crucified that nature. Just as all humanity were in Adam when he fell, just so all humanity were in Christ when He died the equivalent of the second death on the cross of Calvary. Therefore, without performing any legal trickery God is able legally to declare the sinner righteous."  Ann Walper

The Treaty of Tripoli

In 1797 the treaty of Tripoli was made and signed by President Washington, and approved by the Senate of the United States, in which it is declared that—

 
“The Government of the United States is not in any sense founded upon the Christian religion.”

This being a material part of a treaty, “made under the authority of the United States,” it thus became a material part of “the supreme law of the land.”

Lesson 3: “All Have Sinned

Subscribe to SST

By faith they do the commandments. Since the gospel is contrary to human nature, we become doers of the law not by doing but by believing. If we worked for righteousness, we would be exercising only our own sinful human nature, and so would get no nearer to righteousness, but farther from it. But bybelieving the ‘exceeding great and precious promises,’ we become partakers of the divine nature’ (2 Peter 1:4, KJV), and then all our works are wrought in God. ...

The separation of religion and the State is one of the most important questions that any people can ever be called upon to consider in connection with Christian patriotism; because the union of religion and the State has marked the greatest apostasies from God, and has caused more misery than any other thing in all history.  ~Alonzo Trevier Jones

Lesson 2: “Jew and Gentile

In order to save us, God had to do everything. Waggoner understood that through grace, God gives mankind the righteousness of Jesus Who alone has lived a sinless life. By faith, the believer accepts this righteousness, making the believer, in Christ, a doer of the law. ~Arlene Hill

Lesson 1: “Paul and Rome
  
 
 
"The righteousness of the law fulfilled in us is the atonement. It is the practical meaning of the cleansing of the sanctuary. It is true justification by faith. It is Christ’s gift to us as our High Priest in the holiest of all. Thus Romans is an invitation into the Most Holy Place with Christ."
Paul E. Penno

Greetings,

This blog will be updated as we proceed through this next 13 lessons on the Book of Romans.

In 1888 God sent two messengers to explain clearly about Righteousness by Faith and to set His people in the right direction.

Ignoring His counsel and teaching has caused us to seek instruction from the world and to wonder more than 120 years needlessly.  This is the length of time that we have refused to go home, that we have kept Jesus from His bride.

May the most precious message in the book of Romans be allowed to be what it is without the tinkerings of the scribes and pharisees.  May we ignore the chirpings from the theologians in the trees and take God at His word, just as it is written.

May God bless us all as we learn,

Daniel Peters
