Romans: The Power and Glory of the Gospel (Part 29)Romans 14:13-15:13// The Bible is a book that recounts many miracles and epic moments in history. We think of Moses dividing the Red Sea, Elijah calling down fire from heaven, and Jesus rising from the dead. Miracles are important. And miracles can and do happen. But the primary way that the kingdom of God has advanced is through the simple faithfulness of the people of God as displayed in the profoundly practical and small moments of life. The kingdom of God advances when we speak the truth with one another in our disagreements, but we do so in a way that exudes love. We stand against the kingdom of darkness when we refuse to give way to bitterness and resentment. We exude the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit when we walk in grace and practice forgiving well and repenting well. We glorify God with one voice when we reject the temptation to judge one another or provoke one another into stumbling. We show the watching world a glimpse of the character of Christ when we use our freedom to serve others and live in a way that pleases unto God. All these ordinary actions of the church of Jesus Christ are the means through which the extraordinary power of God, prophesied for ages, has gone into every continent and culture of the globe!Our mission is to declare the gospel with our words and display the gospel with our lives to our neighbors and to the nations.
