Romans 1:16-22

Sermon Topics

Is God a Righteous God? Is God a Just God? Is God Righteous and Just to let a person die and go to Hell who has never once heard the name of Jesus?

  1. The Revelation Factor – All Men Have Some Light (Rom. 1:19-20)
    • Who are the Witnesses?
      1. Creation: The Outward, Objective Witness (Rom. 1:19-20)
        • Creation Testifies to the Face of God.
      2. Conscience: The Inward, Subject Witness (Rom. 1:19)
        • An atheist is someone who has the idea of God that makes him uncomfortable.
  2. The Refusal Factor – Light Refused Increases Darkness (Rom. 1:20-21)
    • In the Bible, the opposite of truth is not error; it is sin.
  3. The Reception Factor – Light Obeyed Increases Light (Rom. 1:16-17)
    • Creation and Conscience only bring us to the Fact of God. But know this – if a man is not interested in the fact of God, he certainly is not interested in the way to God.
    • While all mean do not have enough light to save them, all men have enough light to damn them.
    • The Ethiopian Eunuch was an opportunity on wheels that God was not going to miss!
    • The reason some of us don’t understand the Bible any more than we do is because we have not been living up to the light that God has already given us.
    • When a man surrenders his will; God WILL speak to him.
  4. The Redeeming Factor – God will Judge us by the Light we have Rejected (Rom. 2:5, 11-12)

The burning question is not what God is going to do with the heathen who has never heard; the burning question is ‘What is God going to do with YOU?’
