George SinclairMessiah DowntownDate: 1st March 2026Passage: Romans 3:1-20-------------------Romans: Real Grace for Real People Romans 3:1–20 March 1, 2026 Humans seek advantage and benefit - and complain about advantage and benefit. Despite humans being sinful, disinterested, and hostile, God caused His word written to be a public revelation. You are under sin. In the face of God's perfect justice and His perfect sentence against you, there will be nothing you can say. God's revelation of what is right and wrong reveals your sin and your need. but it cannot not make you right with Him. Despite humans being sinful, disinterested, and hostile, God accomplished real, eternal salvation in the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ. The gospel shapes the Christian to be more deeply penitent and more deeply hopeful.

Jan 18, 2026 Sermon Notes: The gospel is a message from God about Jesus that comes with His power to save. In the Bible, faith is about receiving a person into yourself. It involves: acknowledging, consenting, receiving, and giving permission. Only God can make you right with Himself -and He does this with perfect justice, mercy, and grace.

George SinclairMessiah DowntownDate: 11th January 2026Passage: Romans 1:1-15-------------------Romans: Real Grace for Real People Romans 1:1-15 "Gospel the Gospel!" Jan 11, 2026 Sermon Notes: The gospel is good news from God about the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is: God the Son of God, fully human, the one promised by God, and fully vindicated by His resurrection. God's good news is a call to you personally to the obedience of faith. You do not live in the hope of belonging, BUT, live in hope because you belong! You are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, for God's glory alone. There are three brief but important implications! a) In belonging to Jesus you will know your need and your calling to encourage others and to allow others to encourage you. b) In belonging to Jesus you now have a debt to pay towards those outside the Christian faith. c) In belonging to Jesus you will know your need and your calling to gospel the gospel when you gather.
