This Week | August 2 – 8, 2024
August 4 | Romans – Grasping The Gospel, Romans 8:1, Part 23: No Condemnation – Pastor Mark Pospisil
Synopsis: We are about to embark on what many consider the greatest chapter in the whole Bible. Romans 8 is jammed packed with precious and true promises. This chapter has encouraged, strengthened, equipped, and challenged followers of Jesus throughout history. We could literally spend the next year unpacking this chapter. We start with one of the most amazing realities in the Bible in Romans 8:1, “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” We are going to see the breathtaking and wonderful truth that through Jesus, all condemnation is removed. When we truly grasp this, it has far-reaching implications for our lives and eternity.
Fighter Verse: Romans 8:1 – “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
