Grafted
16 July 2023
Does God keep His promises? Yes! But what about Israel? Has He failed them? No way! We just haven’t seen the end of the story yet… This week we see from Romans 11 that God has not rejected Israel, nor have they stumbled beyond recovery, but they are still part of his plan to reach both Jews and Gentiles with the good news of Jesus. So as Gentiles grafted in, we must consider his sternness, continue in his kindness, and praise him for his rich mercy.
Passage: Romans 11

The Light

At Christmas we celebrate the birth of Jesus, but who are we really dealing with? This week we see from John 1:6-13 that Jesus is the light of life who came into the world so that those who receive Him can become God’s children.

God With Us in Person

Christmas is about God with us. John tells us God has always personally communicated to us like a father with his family, especially at Christmas. We see from John 1:1-5 that Jesus is the Word who created everything and so has the blinding power to create unquenchable new life for us.

Adoption – Sinners Made God’s Sons

How is adoption the climax of the Bible and the ultimate blessing of Christianity? This week we look at our last and ultimate Big Word in God’s Big Plan: Adoption – Sinners Made God’s Sons. We see from Galatians 3:23-4:7 that in Christ, we are adopted as God’s sons so that we may live as His children.
