Bible Study 3/23

What we ate last week? Salad and pasta.

Some may ask why I'm posting about what the group has been eating the past few weeks. I'm offering proof that we're not just about the Costco pizza's and KFC chicken. :)

In our last study, Paul states that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God", thus no one can be justified in their own works. Rather, we are justified by faith in Christ Jesus. Paul also points out that justification by faith will not nullify the Law, but will establish it instead.

Homework - memorize Romans 3:23 or Romans 3:23-25a

Onwards with Romans this week. Jason and Sterling will bring food.

Bible Study 3/16

What we ate last week? Cheeseburger mac.

In our last study, Paul references the OT and points out that we are all guilty of sin. And none can be declared righteous in the law "because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin."

If you didn't do your homework last week, here's your chance to catch up, get the prize, and not get penalized!

Read:
1. James
2. Matthew 5-7
3. Hosea

We'll continue with our Romans study this week. Niki and Tim will bring food.

Bible Study 3/9

What we ate last week? Safeway lasagna.

Last week, we learned that God's judgement is just and righteous. And it also demonstrates grace to those who repent (like David). Even though "our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteouness of God", Paul argues that men should not justify their sins thinking that it actually benefits God because God ultimately wants all men to stop sinning.

Don't forget that we've had homework for the past three weeks:
1. James
2. Matthew 5-7
3. Hosea

There is a $$$penalty$$$ (5-20) for not doing the homework.

This week, we continue on with Romans. Jeremy and I will bring food.
