Fellowship Church MiddlebrookGospel Sunday: ThereforeThereforeAugust 3, 2025 • Greg Pinkner • Romans 3:21-26, Romans 12:1-4Jesus’s central message was "repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand," calling us not just to change our behavior, but to be spiritually reborn. Sin is not simply bad behavior but missing the mark of perfectly loving and glorifying God, which no one can achieve apart from Christ. Spiritual disciplines like prayer, worship, and study are not ends in themselves, but tools to abide in God’s presence and be transformed by His grace. The Christian journey is not about religious performance, but a deepenin...

The Christian life is not just a moment of belief, but a continual process of putting off the old self and putting on the new, through repentance, gratitude, and obedience. Drawing from Romans and Ephesians, Greg stresses that theology must lead to transformation—true worship is offering our lives to God, and gratitude is the foundation of joy and worship, because it acknowle...

In Colossians 2, Paul warns the Colossians against false teachings that diminish Christ, distort grace, and pull believers back into legalism and human traditions. These teachings made Christ out to be just another created being, not the sovereign Lord, and suggested that salvation still required human effort. However, Christ is fully God, the head over all rule and authority, and believers are made alive in Him. True transformation comes from a spiritual change of heart, not outward religious performance. It is...

Colossians 1:19–20, the final section of the Christological hymn, emphasizes that Jesus is not merely a spiritual being but fully God, in whom all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell. Paul writes this to confront false teachings in Colossae that diminished Christ’s divinity and authority over all creation and spiritual powers. Reconciliation through Christ is entirely God's work—bringing broken humanity and creation back to Himself, not through mutual compromise, but through the blood of the cross...

Paul wrote Colossians, alongside Ephesians, to counter false teachings about spiritual beings having authority over people’s lives. In Colossians 1:16, Paul lifts up the supremacy of Christ, presenting Jesus as both the Creator of all things and the head of the church, with everything holding together in Him. The Christian life is about being in Christ—a reality that anchors us in peace and overcomes fear. It is the only place where true rest and new crea...

Paul wrote this letter to correct false teaching that diminished Jesus and instead presented Him as the image of God and the creator of all things. Jesus is not just part of creation—He is above it and holds it all together. Believers should see their identity as part of God's new creation, made to reflect His glory and rescued through Christ’s supremacy, sacrifice, and resurrection.WEBSITE: https://fellowship...

In Acts 20, Paul’s farewell to the Ephesians emphasizes that true faith often comes with suffering, and he urged the believers to be “constrained by the Spirit”—willing to obey God even when it’s costly or uncomfortable. He warned against false teaching, especially messages that appeal to comfort and avoid hard truths, reminding the church that a gospel that doesn’t confront us isn’t the real gospel. The church is to live boldly for Christ, anchored in...

In Acts 17, Paul engages the philosophers of Athens at Mars Hill—a city filled with idols and intellectual pride. Surrounded by temples to false gods, Paul boldly proclaims the one true God who made the world, gives life and breath to all, and cannot be contained by human temples or served by human hands. He confronts both Stoic and Epicurean worldviews, contextualizing the gospel in their language, and calls them to repent because God has appointed Jesus as the righ...

In Acts 11, we see the gospel spreading beyond the Jews to the Gentiles, especially in Antioch, where believers—fleeing persecution—boldly preached Christ across cultural lines. This moment marks a massive turning point in church history, as Peter’s vision and Cornelius’s conversion clear the way for the ceremonial law to be set aside, opening the door for all people to receive the gospel. Barnabas, a Levite and encourager, is sent to Antioch, and he brings Paul to help teach...

Acts 10 focuses on the radical transformation of Peter. Once a devout Jew who strictly followed the law, Peter is confronted by a vision from God telling him not to call anything unclean that God has made clean—challenging his deeply ingrained beliefs. This vision prepares Peter to enter the home of Cornelius, a Roman centurion and Gentile, something no faithful Jew would have done. As Peter witnesses the Holy Spirit fall on Cornelius and his househ...

Acts 9 focuses on Saul’s conversion to Christianity—a moment that changed the course of the world. Saul, was a brilliant Hellenized Jew, a Roman citizen, and a fierce persecutor of Christians before Jesus appeared to him in a blinding light on the road to Damascus. This encounter, where Jesus calls Saul personally, transforms him from a man of violence into a passionate teacher of the gospel. His story parallels many biblical themes—bli...

Looking at Acts 5:1 - 6:15, he explains that biblical narratives, especially in Acts, are arranged intentionally to convey deeper theological truths, not just historical accounts. The passage highlights a pattern of highs and lows in the early church—miraculous healings, powerful sermons, arrests, and opposition—emphasizing that suffering and victory coexist in God's kingdom. Ananias and Sapphira’s story underscores the seriousness of sin and the fear of the Lord, while Stephen's martyrdom shows that...

Acts 3:11-26 is Peter's second sermon and follows the miraculous healing of a lame man, drawing a large crowd in Solomon’s Portico, where Peter seizes the opportunity to proclaim Jesus as the fulfillment of God’s promises. He connects Jesus to Israel’s history, emphasizing that He is the suffering servant prophesied in Isaiah, the Holy and Righteous One whom they denied and handed over to Pilate, asking instead for a murderer to be released.

Acts 2:42-3:9 falls between two of Peter's sermons and shows the early church how to live as Christians. The early believers were devoted to the apostles' teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayer and obedience was the core of Christian life. These verses show us how important it is to be actively involved in a church community, serve others, and embrace the unity found in Christ.

In Acts 2, we see the birth of the church as the Holy Spirit descends during Pentecost, marked by the mighty rushing wind and tongues of fire resting on each believer, symbolizing God's covenantal presence and action. This event is a reversal of the Tower of Babel, uniting people from different nations by enabling the apostles to speak in various tongues, allowing everyone to hear the gospel in their own language. The fire signifies God's presence, holiness, and purifi...

Christianity is not about personal perfection but trusting in God's unshakable foundation, emphasizing faith in His grace rather than self-effort. Mystery, not chaos, defines God's work in our lives, as the Gospel reveals truths previously hidden but now disclosed for all nations. We are to focus on faith-driven obedience, trusting God's purposes even in seasons of suffering and uncertainty.WEBSITE: https://fellowshipknox.org/INS...

He looks at the significance of New Year’s as a time for renewal. He connects it to the Jewish festivals, particularly Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and the Festival of Booths, which illustrate God's provision and redemption. These festivals point to Jesus as the fulfillment of God's promises, offering living water and eternal rest for weary souls. Jesus' invitation to “come to me” is central to faith, as only through Him can we find true sustenance and life. We need to have re...

The story of Jesus’ birth is a testament to this, set in a backdrop of political upheaval, hardship, and imperfection—far from the peaceful and ideal scenario we might imagine for the arrival of the Savior.

He unpacks the idea of "future grace," the immeasurable kindness and blessings God promises for eternity, even in heaven. Greg challenges cultural cynicism, asserting that hope rooted in God's promises is not naive but assured and vital for combating despair. He highlights that hope extends beyond past grace into a future defined by God’s faithfulness, offering Christians a steadfast anchor.WEBSITE: https://fellowshipknox.org/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fellowsh...

In these verses, Paul concludes his letter by affirming that salvation comes solely through faith in Christ, without the need for additional religious rituals. Adding requirements to the gospel nullifies its power and dishonors Christ's sacrifice. True Christianity isn’t about outward appearances but about becoming a new creation in Christ. Paul reminds believers that their lives should focus on glorifying God, not seeking approval from the world or boasting...

These verses discuss walking by the Spirit versus living by the flesh and confront legalism—the idea that following the law saves, rather than grace through faith. While salvation is instantaneous through faith, the Christian life is a long and challenging walk of sanctification, where the Spirit helps us resist the desires of the flesh. Walking by the Spirit involves repentance, pursuing obedience, and relying on Scripture and prayer, rather than simply focusing on personal spiritual experiences. We are to lead a l...

In these verses, Paul addresses the issue of Jewish Christian teachers insisting that Gentile believers must follow the law of Moses in addition to faith in Christ for salvation. He argues that salvation comes by grace through faith in Christ alone, not by works of the law, as no one can be made righteous through their efforts. Paul emphasizes that Christ's death frees believers from the curse of the law, offering them a new life in freedom. As believers, we need t...

Paul, in Galatians 4, compares the difference between living under the law as a slave and living in the freedom of faith as a child of God. Through Christ, Christians are no longer bound by sin or the elementary principles of the world but are freed to receive their inheritance in God's Kingdom.WE...

Unlike some of the other issues addressed in this series, LGBTQ is clearly addressed in Scripture. Greg acknowledges that these topics are sensitive and central to the current culture war. As believers, we are called to approach these discussions with both grace and truth, reflecting the character of Christ.

We all were spiritually dead in our sins and were living according to worldly desires. But our salvation has come through God's grace and mercy, not by our effort or merit, to demonstrate God's love even when we were "children of wrath."

Greg stresses that, although the Bible doesn't directly address abortion, principles can be drawn from passages like Psalm 139, which highlights God's intimate involvement in the creation and purpose of each person.

He continues last week's discussion, focusing on Paul’s teaching about the law and its limitations in saving us. Salvation has always been based on faith, starting with Abraham, who believed God's promise and was counted as righteous. The law, introduced later through Moses, was not meant to save but to highlight humanity's sinfulness and need for faith in Christ. Paul argues that adherence to the law cannot justify anyone before God, as true righteousness comes only through faith in Jesus. T...

Paul's argument in Galatians centers on the false teaching that Gentile Christians must follow Jewish laws to be saved, emphasizing instead that faith in Christ, not the law, justifies believers. Using Abraham as an example, Paul shows that righteousness comes from faith, not adherence to the law, which only highlights human imperfection. Ultimately, Jesus' perfect sacrifice redeems believers, freeing them from the curse of the law and allowing them to receive the Holy Spirit by faith.WEBSITE: https...

The Jerusalem Council, described in Acts 15, plays a crucial role in determining the inclusion of Gentiles in the faith without adherence to Jewish laws like circumcision. This decision highlights the gospel's universal accessibility through grace, not works. Paul defends this stance before the apostles, showing that God's acceptance of Gentiles is affirmed through the Holy Spirit's work among them. The Council's decision underscores the gospel's transformative power, which transcends cultural barriers and emphasi...

In these verses, the writer of Ecclesiastes continues his thesis on why everything is meaningless, but he begins to look at why we are trapped in a world where everything we try to do to make our lives have meaning fails. The New Testament gives the same idea that the entire universe has been subjected to futility, waiting for one day when there will be hope. The hope that will bring humanity out of futility is Christ.
