Pauline Epistles (149)
  1. The sinner who soberly faces her sin has no place to run but to a savior, and the savior to run to is at the cross. The cross is where sin goes to die.
  2. Christ’s hands and feet, Christ’s very heart, are, indeed, the hands, feet, and heart of His servants, His slaves, those He has made free by dying as slave for them.
  3. In meditating on these sacred texts, pastors will then be equipped for doctrinal preaching that edifies and exhorts God’s holy people in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
  4. The new life that is hidden in Christ through burial and resurrection is a new life that starts at your baptism, God’s work on your behalf that has ongoing effects.
  5. This is what baptism indicates. It is an identity with the victor. It is comforting that the enemies have no hold on me, on us.
  6. No longer on the outs, God has taken you through Christ’s death and transferred you to His Kingdom, made you a part of his body. Family dinner just would not be complete if you were not there too.
  7. Paul and company’s constant prayer for their readers/hearers is that they be filled with knowledge of God’s will in all wisdom and spiritual insight, “To walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him".
