The focus of todays message is to explore and refresh ourselves with the wonderful, magnificent, indescribable, unexplainable, outstanding, splendid, brilliant, glorious, gift of our salvation that comes thru Jesus Christ our Lord! This scripture here in Romans is like a coin. Its got two sides to it! One of doom and gloom and despair, and one of celebration and hope in the future glory that has been promised us thru Jesus Christ. When you leave here today, my prayer is that you will have plenty of things to think about and plenty of praying to do â€" to not only secure your salvation (and work it out), but to give the Lord thanks and praise for such a wonderful gift. May the Lord Bless our hearts this day as we study His Word, and His Gift of Salvation for us! Listen closely, as we read our scripture for today, Romans 8, verses 18 - 27.
