The priorities of the people who returned to the land were to have access to God through sacrifice, build a visible centre of worship, and then to praise God for His goodness and mercy.

The Righteousness We All Need (Romans 1 - 5)
We revisit the first five chapters of Romans in preparation for returning to our Romans series. These chapters are a powerful portrayal of the gospel. Paul introduces the gospel, which reveals the righteousness of God and concerns Jesus, the crucified and risen son of God and savior. God, in his holiness, requires righteousness and purity of all who would approach him, but this righteousness is nowhere to be found in humanity. Only in Jesus Christ, through faith in him and his death in our place, do we find the free gift of righteousness that brings us mercy and grace and life rather than death and wrath. Thanks be to God for this amazing and undeserved gift!

For the Love of the Bride
When we quit serving out of duty and guilt-driven performance and rest in the grace of God, we align our heart with God’s heart. This is Worship! And when our heart of worship is aligned with His glory, our greatest delight becomes what He loves and our priorities become His mission. Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her. The Church is what Christ died to create. In the Church God has chosen to display Himself. Through her wrinkles and stains she makes known the glorious Gospel of God to the watching world. To not cherish the bride is to not care about the glory of God.

He Gave

Biblical Saving Faith has a Proper Eternal Perspective
My purpose in preaching this passage is to ignite a fire in your hearts to passionately pursue Christ by applying these three necessary decisions to your life and then to follow hard after Christ. It’s past time for the church to stop playing Christian and be Christians who live lives of radical sacrifice.
