Sermons About Wrath
That Every Mouth May Be Silent (Romans 3:9-20)
Paul's argument in this passage is that of a prosecutor. He demonstrates beyond any doubt that we are totally depraved, that our sin leaves us with no defense before a holy and righteous judge. By ourselves we cannot earn God's approval, and we deserve only wrath and judgment. But praise God for his provision of a Savior, Jesus Christ, who is our advocate and our righteousness. Though everyone stands guilty before God, everyone who calls on the name of Jesus will be saved, accepted by God, and adopted into God's family as his child.

The Fury of God
In this introductory message Pastor Lundmark begins a study of a very frightening characteristic of God, his Fury. Is God an all loving God. What does the Bible say. Is God more compassionate in the New Testament than in the Old. Is Jesus the Son more compassionate and gracious than God the Father. These and other questions regarding God's anger will be discussed as we begin a study through the Bible of the Fury of God.

Dying to (Not) Get Even
The desire for retaliation and revenge is built in to every person because of sin. It started in the Garden of Eden, where Adam tried to get revenge against Eve by blaming her. And it escalated when Cain retaliated against Abel by murder. But God has a different plan for those who will be a living sacrifice. God says, "You be loving and let me handle the outcome."

The Coming Day of Wrath (Romans 2:1-16)
We live in light of the coming day of wrath, first, by thinking rightly of the sin of others; we are no better than others and must not presume on God's grace. Second, by giving ourselves to good works, not as an attempt to save ourselves, but in faithfulness, gratitude and love. Third, by thinking rightly of those who have never heard the gospel; their problem is not that they have not heard, but that they have seen God and rejected him. The only way that we will escape the judgment of God is through Jesus's death, sacrifice, and washing our sins away.

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!
