Sermons About Excuse
Religion is no excuse
Religion. Religion! Now how can that be a problem? Well, the first thing we need to realize is that religion is made by men, not by God. Religion is man’s attempt to reach up to God. Christianity, on the other hand, is God’s attempt to reach down to man.

Mankind: Without Excuse (Romans 1:18-23)
In this section of Romans, Paul begins to demonstrate our need for the gospel. He points to God's wrath, which is God's righteous antagonism to that which is unholy and unrighteous. He proves our own unrighteousness, showing that we are many times over without excuse before God. Paul shows that our sin is a form of idolatry, giving to something else the worship and service and love that God deserves. In light of this proof of our sin, the provision of Christ as our Savior shines as a glorious and welcome hope. He came to redeem us from sin, to give us his righteousness in place of our sin and guilt. What a glorious gift this is!
