The Really Bad News

Last night, Joe spoke about the wrath of God. He reminded us that in order to appreciate the good news, we have to understand the bad news.


Compare his two key passages:

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth." (Romans 1:18)

...and...

"But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ"
(Ephesians 2:4-5)


This week...
- Let’s think about where we were before God grabbed us.
- Let’s think about who Jesus is and what he had to do to save us.
- Let’s thank God for his rich kindness to us!

Resolved Tonight

Hey folks! Due to the inclement weather Resolved has been moved to the Annex at Sovereign Grace Church of Indiana. We will be giving rides from the HUB Circle at 6:45 pm. See you there!!

-The Resolved Crew

Flagstone Theater

This week (the 9th) we're not meeting in the Delaware room, but at Flagstone Theater.

Flagstone Theater is that outdoor, stone stage outside of the Oakgrove. It's along Pratt drive near the construction.
You may have never noticed it before, but it's there (hopefully).


The following week (September 16th) we'll be back in the Delaware room. We'll be there for the rest of the year.

With questions, email benandjanmurphy@yahoo.com

Joe will be giving a great (hopefully) message on the book of Romans! See you at Flagstone!

Application Questions from Tuesday Night

Last night, Joe said that as Christians we should have an "eager obligation" to spread this great news to people who don't know it (referring to Romans 1:14-17). He said that this news about Jesus taking our punishment for us is the only message that has ever saved anyone. Great communication of the truth, Joe!


Some questions to ask yourself...

Do you feel an obligation to share the gospel with others? Why or why not?

Do you feel an eagerness to share the gospel with others? Why or why not?

Joe said that if he gave his friend Tyler a billion dollars on the condition that he would be generous with it, Tyler would be under an obligation (yet a joyous one!) to give to others. How can we develop this same mindset with the gospel we have? What truths about God do we forget that lead us to think otherwise?

How can the following scriptures encourage you in this area? Hebrews 13:20-21, Romans 5:6-8, Romans 10:13-15
