Romans 7:7-25 – January 15, 2006

Romans 7:7-25
Greg Blosser

Contrary to some of our hopes, becoming a Christian does not automatically and fully remove the influence of sin on our lives. Likewise, our forgiveness isn’t a license to remain in our sin-infested state. In the second part of Romans 7, the Apostle Paul writes about our sanctification — our being made holy in Christ — and how it is an “already/not yet” reality. “Already” in the sense that we have been made holy in God’s sight; “not yet” in the sense that sin, while no longer our master, still rears its ugly head if it’s given the opportunity.

Thanks be to God, he’s still working on us.

Corrected Jan. 15 post coming

Unforeseen technical issues resulted in the audio from January 15 being cut off a couple of minutes before Greg was actually done preaching.  This should be fixed by this evening (Tues, Jan 17).

Sorry for the inconvenience!  If you’ve already downloaded it, you’d probably do well to delete that copy and re-download tonight.

Romans 7:1-6 – January 8, 2006

Romans 7:1-6
Greg Blosser

This week, we resume our verse-by-verse series in Romans.

What is the Law? What does it do? It is an accuser? A taskmaster? A relentless reminder of our human shortcomings? We examine Romans 7:1-6 to see that it serves one of two roles in our lives: judge or guide.

Numbers 6:22-27 – January 1, 2006
Greg Blosser

Even in the midst of wildnerness and wandering, God speaks words of blessing into our lives. This week, we examine the three-fold blessing God gave to Aaron for Israel, recorded in Numbers 6:22-27, and consider its implications for our lives today.

No Christmas Post

Funky logistics prevented us from recording this past Sunday’s service, which was a traditional Christmas Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols (well, traditional with a twist).  Anyway . . . sorry, everyone!  Back on January 1 with new audio.

Have a blessed New Year!

Christmas is An Act of War – December 11, 2005

Christmas is An Act of War – December 11, 2005
Greg Blosser

The Christmas season is thought of as a time of fun with family, of giving, of love, and of peace. While it’s right and good to enjoy these things, it’s important to see Christmas for what it is at its root: an act of war.

On this, the third week of Advent 2005, we examine Matthew 1 and Genesis 3 to recover this truth.
