Join us as we discuss the importance of truly turning away from sin and embracing the newness of life offered through Christ's resurrection. We reflect on the profound insights Romans offers, emphasizing that whether one is newly saved or has been a Christian for decades, the scripture continuously reveals new depths of God's love and grace. The study highlights how baptism symbolizes our unity with Christ in death and resurrection, encouraging us to live free from sin and as instruments of righteousness.

The conversation explores the transformative power of patience, drawing on biblical teachings to illustrate how tribulations lead to personal development and closer alignment with God's will. Listeners are encouraged to view their experiences, whether good or bad, as opportunities for spiritual growth, learning to remain constant and faithful through all circumstances. Furthermore, the episode sheds light on the ultimate expression of God's love through Christ's sacrifice, portraying how His death and resurrection offer us redemption and eternal life.

This episode dives deep into Romans chapter four, exploring the pivotal role of faith in achieving righteousness, as demonstrated by Abraham. We discuss how Abraham's belief in God was counted as righteousness, emphasizing that it was not his works, but his faith that granted him favor with the Lord. We also reflect on the notion that good works are appreciated but are not the currency of salvation. Through Abraham, it is highlighted that adherence to the law or performing good works cannot grant salvation. Instead, the episode emphasizes the profound impact of faith and grace in our spiritual journey, how Jesus’ sacrifice justifies us, and the immeasurable worth of faith in God's promises. Join us as we unravel the layers of faith, grace, and righteousness, and delve into the transformative message that salvation is a gift, imputed by God, through belief in Him rather than by our own deeds. This revelation not only illuminates our understanding of scripture but also helps us appreciate the depth of God's love and the importance of unwavering faith.

Welcome to another insightful episode of my KJV Bible Teaching Podcast. In this session, we explore the profound topic of failure in the Christian walk.

In this episode, Pastor Steven Perry teaches us the concept of fear, its origins, and how it can serve as both a warning and a hindrance in our lives. We explore the distinction between fear and anxiety and how fear, when used correctly, can keep us safe. Through biblical references and personal anecdotes, we discuss how God allows fear to protect us but also teaches us to discern beneficial fear from the fear that impedes our spiritual journey.

The episode emphasizes that while fear is a natural response of our fallen flesh, our spirit, once born again, should be free from fear.

Join us as we discuss practical ways to overcome fear through faith, prayer, and understanding God's perfect love.
