Sermon Notes
Date: 05/07/2023
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Romans
Key Text: Romans 3:21-26
Description:
Avg Guy: When it comes to justification, I have so many questions!
SBC Host: Okay.
Avg Guy: Well, for starters, WHAT IS IT?? … Is it MORE than the removal of sin?… Are we simply pardoned by God? And if so, how can God be JUST if he gives the wicked a pass and declares them as righteous?! Surely THAT would be a travesty of justice!
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Romans and shows in our passage that not only does Paul address these questions, but throughout the rest of the book of Romans, he expands upon these truths.
For THIS is the heart of the gospel.

Questions:
The following are questions* to help you think about the sermon, as well as offer a set of discussion questions for family worship, or gathering together in other settings. My prayer is that these questions will allow you to dwell longer, and meditate more, upon God’s holy Word and will be fodder for sanctifying conversations. — M.S.
