Session 13 - Paul’s Message in Romans 5 Concludes

8-24-25 Biblical-Literacy Mark Lanier taught from Romans 5:6-11 asking two questions: what is your “why” for experiencing the class, and what is God’s “why” we are here? He then divided the passage into three sections to answer the “why” questions covering the text, a related song and application. 1. Do we find our “why" in Romans 5:6-9? Text: Christ died for weak sinners, not good people. Christ died in our place, a demonstration and manifestation of God’s love and who He is. Song: Elvina Hall wrote, “Jesus Paid it All” Points for home: God’s love triumphs over human failure 2. Do we find our “why" in Romans 5:9-10? Text: We shall be saved. Song: Amy Grant sang, "The Now and Not Yet" Points for Home: God’s not finished with you yet 3. Is God’s “why” in Romans 5:11? Text: Rejoice in God through Jesus. Song: Joseph M. Scriven wrote, "What a Friend We have in Jesus" Points for home: Lean into your friend Listen to Mark explain the context of Romans 5:6-11. In Christ we are not yet what we will be. What is your why? Jesus is always your answer.
