Sermon Notes:

The main point Jesus is making is that followers of Jesus will greatly influence the people they live around. Therefore, we should strive to greatly influence the people we live around—all for the glory of God.

When professing followers of Christ stop being Christ-like, they are useless for the Kingdom of God.

Extended Application (Three Questions)

  1. If not us, then whom?

  2. If not now, then when?

  3. If not for God’s glory, then what?

Q. What is your only comfort in life and in death?

A. That I am not my own, but belong—body and soul, in life and in death—to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ.

Sermon Notes:

Romans 3:21

But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it—

Romans 3:22

the righteousness of God [state of being] through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction:

Romans 3:23

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Romans 3:24

[those who belief/trust/faith] are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

Romans 3:25a

whom God put forward as a propitiation by His blood, to be received by faith.

Romans 3:25b-26

This was to show God’s righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

Sermon Notes:

God is totally righteous to judge man’s total depravity.

  1. God’s Total Righteousness (1-8)

For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt. (Hebrews 6:4-6)

  1. Man’s Total Depravity (9-20)

Summary of Romans 1:18-3:20

  1. Gentiles know of God through natural law, yet suppress God’s truth and worship the creature not the Creator.

  2. Jews are privileged in that they have God’s Law—but they are not able to keep God’s Law. The Law shows their guilt.

  3. Having the Law isn’t what counts—keeping it is, and all are condemned because none keep the Law. The Law shows how far short we fall.

  4. We need a righteous standing because we answer to the righteous judge.

Sermon Notes:

An outward showy religion without inward transformation blasphemes God’s name among unbelievers.

  1. It is the inside (heart), not the outside (showy religion), that matters to God. (17-24)

And he sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which make a penny. And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.” [Matthew 12:41-44]

  1. Paul uses circumcision as an example of the folly of outward religion without inward transformation. (25-29)

The separation from God we deserve should lead us to Jesus for the restoration he provides.
