The Power of God Conceived in his Revelation to Man

The gospel, God's rule, and righteousness
  • rah
  • July 6, 2022
Accordingly, human notions of both power and purity were challenged, toppled, and then turned right-side-up by the gospel. Rome imposed its power by a sword; the church found its increase by a word that invited believers of every tribe and people.

The Gospel & Corresponding Christian Witness

The facts of the gospel shape an ironic ministry
  • rah
  • February 23, 2022
The Apostolic witness regarded the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. When the fact of the resurrection was combined with the records of Jesus’ life and death, these together became the essential characteristics of a different kind of news, even a new kind of news—the gospel.

Conceiving a Fiction

True practice & promotion is apprehended in the resurrection
  • rah
  • October 15, 2021
Arguments are frequently founded upon the implausibility or impossibility of their falsehood; but Paul’s tack is different. He is so sure of the resurrection’s fact, and so committed to all its attending consequences, that he makes the logic and character of this life to hinge upon the veracity of Jesus’ resurrection.

History & Mystery

Paul’s letter to the Romans connects past & present
  • rah
  • September 27, 2021
The public resurrection of Jesus Christ is the sufficient cause for a public proclamation of the gospel, and also its universal confession—what Paul calls the obedience of faith. Or we might state this in its reverse: faith in Jesus Christ is universally commanded because the gospel is the proclamation of a public fact—his resurrection.

A Surprising Application of a Familiar Situation

Paul reminds his readers that salvation necessarily arose from a righteous servant
  • rah
  • June 10, 2021
Paul’s point is not merely that there is a temporary similarity between the heir and the servant, since both are under the same tutorial of the Mosaic law; but Paul goes on to show that the rightful heir turns around and provides an undeserved inheritance to the Lord’s servants.
