Pastor John this morning will be preaching from the book of Romans chapter 3

verses 21 through 26. But now apart from the, the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by

the law and the prophets, even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe.

For there is no distinction for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus,

whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in his blood through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness,

because in the forbearance of God he had passed over the sins previously committed, for the demonstration, I say, of his righteousness at the present

time so that he would be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

Let's pray together.

This is the Acropolis of the Bible Lord and I am inadequate to climb it and declare it as it ought to be climbed and declared.

But you are adequate and it's your word and your son, your propitiation, your wrath, your righteousness, your glory,

your justification, and the faith that you are pleased to give.

So I have hope, Lord, that in this hour you will act on behalf of your name for the sake of those in this room, for the sake of the gospel,

would you come and help me to say what's here.

And would you come to all of us and give us hearts to receive, minds to understand. Would you subdue every rebellion in our minds and hearts to your truth.

And granted there would be a compliant spirit,

that the mind of the flesh would be overcome

by the mind of the spirit.

We would not be among the number called the natural men

who cannot receive the things of the spirit, but that you would work in us a spiritual receptivity so that we are

changed, even converted by this word. In Jesus name I pray, Amen. I took my three-year-old Talitha in each

night and usually she says sing me a song.
