We are SINNERS (Romans 3)
Christ DIED for sinners (Romans 5)
Salvation is a GIFT (Romans 6)
Believers are SECURE forever (Romans 8)
Romans 3:9-26
Every person is guilty before God. Most people think they are ‘good enough’. Paul shows that all are guilty before a holy God. Before we can appreciate God's salvation, we must honestly acknowledge our sinful condition.
Romans 5:1-11
God shows His love by sending Christ to die for helpless sinners. Love can be measured by what someone is willing to sacrifice. There has been no greater sacrifice ever made than Calvary.
Romans 6:15-23
The wages for the guilt of our sin is eternal death. The free gift of God is eternal life through Christ. Everything necessary for salvation is found in Jesus Christ.
Romans 8:1-39
Since our actions cannot earn salvation, they cannot lose it. Those in Christ are eternally secure through the Holy Spirit. Our assurance is not based on our works but Christ’s strength.
