Hope Presbyterian Church In Winston-salem Sermons

Series: The Gospel of GodScripture: Romans 8:1-11 “I tell myself that if I serve more, sign up for more, read my Bible more, just be more, then finally, I will be enough to be in a real relationship with God. But that’s all smoke and mirrors. We’re all fatally wanting, and though we try our best, we can’t hide it from the One who made us. And yet, we are found whole and without stain: ‘There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus’ (Rom 8:1). He looks to judge us, failing and phony people, and sees instead His perfect, pure and blameless Son. We can breathe. We are free.” Emily Price “[The Holy Spirit] internalizes the triumphs of Christ crucified within the depths of the human being, so that our inclinations start changing from evil to good. The law cannot do that. The law tells us to pump harder, but the Holy Spirit makes springs of living water flow from within. The law tells us to pedal faster, but the Holy Spirit fills our sails. And that is the power of real holiness.” Ray Ort
