Day 116

Romans 3

What an awesome chapter with an amazing explanation of our sinfulness and the justice of God and how it all comes together at the cross. Reading verses 10-18 could drive you to despair. (I said yesterday it would get worse before it got better!) But the fact that we're steeped in sin and can't keep God's law is not the end of the story. The law condemns us but faith in Christ sets us free from the law. I could totally write and preach a sermon out of this one chapter. Maybe we can put Romans on the CCC preaching schedule for 2010-11!!
