This is the Scripture Study Project, our podcast that gives you a fresh and faithful perspective of the scriptures, that we hope will renew your excitement for your own personal study and help you passionately teach what you are learning to others.

We are your host, Zach and Krista Horton.

And today we're going to be studying in Romans chapter 7 through 16.

We're finishing Paul's epistle to the Romans.

And we're diving into the topic this episode of belonging.

Who belongs to the tribe of Israel or to the Israelite name that Paul uses?

And in our modern day, who belongs to the Church of Jesus Christ?

And what do those people that belong act like?

What do they think like?

What sets an Israelite or a member of the church apart?

So we're really excited to say we've spent the last couple of days talking about this quite a bit.

So we're excited to study.

But first we're going to begin with a quick announcement that this week we are going to be releasing a bonus episode.

And that is last week we mentioned our Facebook live video

that we were teaming up with Salt Gathering and they're closer to Christ group. We ended up recording

that audio and we decided that the questions that were asked and hopefully the discussion

will be meaningful to some of you. I know some of you that don't have Facebook or weren't able to

listen to ask us, and we decided that the sound quality isn't wonderful, but it's pretty good.

So we're going to release it and hope that that content helps you. Lots of people's good study

questions. So hopefully, if that's something that interests you, tune in this week, we'll be

releasing that later on.

And then, of course, we're going to move on to our question for this week.
