The God(ness) of God: The God of Glory - Week 1
April 13, 2008 Chapter 9, Romans, Sermon-Texts No Comments
The introductory sermon to our new series titled “The God(ness) of God” covering Romans 9-11. The series addresses three main subjects in these chapters: The God of Glory 9:1-29, The God of Gospel 9:30-10:21, and The God of Future 11:1-36. This sermon is week 1 of The God of Glory and is an exegetical treatment of Romans 9:1-6a addressing the themes of the place of Romans 9-11 in the book of Romans, the pain of Paul the author, the privileges of the Israelites, and God’s powerful word. This sermon was originally preached April 13th, 2008 at The Resolved Church in San Diego, CA.
In last Sunday’s sermon I made a point that part of our vision of The Resolved Church is to be a city within a city, meaning the mission to create a spiritual city where who Jesus is and our pursuit of him together as a church is what determines how we live in the physical city of San Diego. I said one example of how that plays itself out is in our jobs. One of the most frequent things I am asked as a Pastor is how you know where to live and what job to work at. This journal entry is devoted to that subject.
Hello Everyone. First of all a big thanks to Michael Trujillo for writing the church journal entry for last week. This last year, it has truly been a joy to watch Michael be changed by the gospel and lead us in the worship of our great savior, Jesus Christ. Michael we all love you and appreciate you so much.
