Redeemer Modesto | Jim Applegate | Romans 6:15-7:6 Once you had no choice, but now, because of Jesus, you have a choice. And your choices dictate your freedom (not your acceptance). Paul tells us that we were once slaves to sin, but now we are slaves to righteousness. Our hearts are created like vacuums, needed to be filled – we have no choice but to look at everything around us and search for something to fill us. Before we knew Jesus, the things that we were trying to fill our hearts with only left us in a greater state of emptiness. But, we still had no choice…we were slaves to these things, trying to fill ourselves. As we look at society today and consider that the world is now trying to justify our bad choices by our DNA and upbringing, they are not far from what Paul is saying…they are ‘slaves to sin’…always needing to fill the vacuum that seems to get larger with every poor choice.

Romans 4:1-25 | Jim Applegate | Redeemer Modesto Key Thought: Righteousness by faith is hard to accept because we’d rather be in control than trust.

The Jewish people in Paul’s crowd would immediately started thinking about the law and circumcision (both outward manifestations). Eager to prove righteousness by faith alone, Paul appeals to the two biggest names in Jewish history, Abraham and David. Abraham is the father of the Jewish people…he was the ‘original Jew’. David was the greatest king in Jewish history, winning more battles, writing more Psalms, being a man after God’s own heart. Paul tells u

Redeemer Modesto | Jim Applegate | James 4:1-17 Discussion Questions: Do you believe the fulness of God’s love is necessary to live in the way that he has commanded us to live? How do you define the fulness of God’s love?  How do we receive the fulness of God’s love? What happens in two-timing relationships?  What are the consequences?  When we two time God (love him and the world), what are the consequences? How do we draw near to God according to James 4:7-10?  What does it mean to ‘be wretched, mourn, weep’?  And how does turning our laughter into gloom help us to seek God? As we know the fulness of the love of God, how does this help us live differently this week?  Relationships, work, thoughts, actions.
