In Romans 2, Paul confronts the dangers of hypocrisy, self-righteousness, and outward religion. God's judgment is righteous and impartial, exposing the true condition of every human heart. This sermon challenges us to examine ourselves, turn from sin in genuine repentance, and recognize that religious knowledge and outward obedience cannot replace the inward transformation that only God's grace can bring.

Romans 1:18-32 - When God Let us Have What We Want
In this sermon, we open one of the most sobering and misused passages in Scripture. Paul doesn’t give us a weapon to aim at the culture or “those people.” He holds up a mirror.
Romans 1 shows how God’s wrath is revealed against all ungodliness and unrighteousness—not as mere anger, but as a holy God handing people over to the desires they already chose. It begins with suppressing the truth, refusing to honor and thank God, and exchanging His glory for lesser things. From there come darkened minds, disordered desires, and the long list of sins that includes both the obvious and the respectable (envy, strife, gossip, pride, heartlessness).
The point is not that some are further gone than others. The point is that this is the human heart—every one of us. The passage ends by turning the spotlight back on the reader, preparing us for the devastating (and beautiful) verdict of Romans 2–3: every mouth stopped, the whole world accountable… and then the gospel’s “But now.”
Jesus took the wrath. He opened the drawer we keep shut. The letter that says “guilty” has already been answered at the cross.
If this sermon leaves you thinking about someone else, it has failed. If it helps you see yourself clearly and run to Christ, it has done its work.

Romans 1:1-17 - Unashamed
Paul opens his letter to Rome by declaring that he is not ashamed of the gospel—because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes. In this message from our series in Romans, we look at how the gospel defines Paul’s identity, his mission, and his confidence, and why the same good news still gives us every reason to stand unashamed.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes…” — Romans 1:16
