Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 07/09/2023

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Romans

Key Text: Romans 6:1-7

Description:  

Avg Guy: I believe you could argue that sinning is ultimately good!

SBC Host: That’s a pretty big statement. What do you mean?

Avg Guy: Well, we are saved apart from our works, right?

SBC Host: Right.

Avg Guy: And since we know that “when sin increases grace abounds all the more”… It’s obvious the law is now obsolete. 

SBC Host: I’m not sur—

Avg Guy:It’s simple: More sin equals more grace! And who wouldn’t want more grace?? Ergo, sin is good. I rest my case.

SBC Host: Careful. Your line of thinking will not end well.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Romans and shows us that this twisted thinking challenged the Gospel.

Man was turning grace into a license to sin — distorting the God’s Word and corrupting many in the church. 

In our passage, Paul responds to these challenges to show the impossibility of such a view — using our union with Christ to show how such an idea would be simply absurd.

Innocent Blood [Matthew 27:1-26; John 3:16]

April 9, 2023


Sermon Notes

Date: 04/09/2023, Easter Sunday

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Key Text: Matthew 27:1-26; John 3:16

Description:

How can there be some much hatred for the one Man who has never sinned?

This Easter Morning on the Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao focuses on HATE. And causes us to consider its polar opposite: LOVE.

For the trials and crucifixion of Jesus show us no greater example of the extreme chasm of these two words — these two actions — than the love of God and the hatred of men.

Jesus came to save sinners because of the great love of God.

As we look back on this day, it’s hard to imagine how one of His own disciples would betray Him. And how the crowds at His own trial would demand His crucifixion.

On one hand, we relate. For we have all experienced hate on some level.

…But, if we’re honest, when it comes to wrongdoing, we’re guilty.
