Alive to God (Part 2)

Bryan Schneider

October 2, 2026

Romans 6:5-11

You are going to serve someone or something. The question is: who or what is it? If you are in Christ, you get to decide if you will walk in according to the old man of sin, or if you walk in the ways of Christ. If we try to live in our own strength, we will certainly fail. It's not enough to just hate sin; we must love Jesus instead. We will continually be fighting sin, but He must be our chief joy and desire! Jesus really died, and He really rose from the dead, and He will never die again. That's our proof that we are no longer slaves to sin. Death and sin do not have dominion over Christ; and since we are in Him, they have no dominion over us either. We may now consider ourselves to be dead to sin, and alive as a new creation in Jesus. Who will you love more: the old man of sin, or the Lord Jesus?

Alive to God

Bryan Schneider

September 25, 2026

Romans 6:5-11

Sometimes we have a problem making the proper connection between "do" and "done." We often have a disconnect between knowing the good news of the Gospel and knowing how it actually changes our life. Our eternal state in the Kingdom of God depends on our being unified with Jesus and being raised up with Him in His resurrection. After Adam and Eve sinned, we became unable to not sin. But if our life is now hidden in Christ, we have a new identity. The tyranny of sin is over! Sin is no longer our master; Jesus is. We will still struggle with sin, but we fight from a position of strength because Jesus is now our King! Are you believing a band-aid Gospel that doesn't fix your real problems, or does God's Word transform you and change your life?

Walk in the Way of Life

Bryan Schneider

September 18, 2026

Romans 6:1-4

As you move from one country to another, you will be expected to change a lot of the ways in which you live your life. Similarly, when we become a Christian, we have a new King, which means that we are blessed to walk in the newness of life. When we die to sin, we are brought into the Kingdom of Christ, and baptism is a sign that we have been brought into this Kingdom. And now, through the power of the Holy Spirit, we can put away the deeds of the flesh. We will still struggle with sin, but we can keep our eyes on Jesus and be encouraged by knowing that we are fighting from a place of strength. We can now live life in the power of God for His glory.

The Foundation of Grace

Bryan Schneider

September 11, 2026

Romans 1-5

God has shown grace in saving sinners! The good news of the Gospel starts with God's love, and it is all about Jesus. It is for both Jews and Greeks, in other words, all people. It is meant to be received by sinners, and it is received by faith in the person and work of Jesus, just as Abraham received it. The good news of the Gospel reconciles us to God, and it changes what King we follow! We never have to doubt our heavenly Father's love for us. Are we resting in God's love as He's shown it to us in Jesus?

Dueling Dominions

Bryan Schneider

September 4, 2026

Romans 5:12-21

Paul uses a compare-and-contrast format here in this passage: Adam and death on the one hand, and Jesus and righteousness on the other. When Adam sinned, death entered the world and guilt was imputed to each of us. But the perfect work of Jesus is greater, and He has given us the free gift of justification! All we have to do is receive this gift; we can never earn Christ's favor by our own works. We are either still under the dominion of sin and death, or we have been brought into Christ's Kingdom of life and grace! Which kingdom are you in? Who is your ruler? Which dominion are you under? The kingdom of Adam and condemnation? Or is Christ your King – reigning over you and freely giving you righteousness, joy, and peace that the world can never take away from you?

God’s Love Displayed

Bryan Schneider

August 28, 2026

Romans 5:6-11

God loved us when we were still sinners. He didn't wait for us to be good enough. God has done everything necessary to reconcile us to himself. Our being declared righteous costs us nothing, but it cost God his only begotten Son. In Jesus we go from enemies to friends. We have a living Savior, and we shall be saved by his life. Is Jesus your only hope? Put your hope in Jesus. Rest in God's love that's demonstrated toward you in the blood of Jesus.

Hope in the Face of Judgment

Bryan Schneider

August 21, 2026

Romans 5:1-11

If you are in Christ, God is with you, no matter what you may be going through. The only way we're made right with God is by Jesus Who saves us. If we want God's face to shine upon us and bestow the peace that only He can give, then it must be by faith. We have access to God's favor, and it didn't cost us any thing, even though it cost Jesus everything. God gives us challenges and tribulations, not to harm us, but to help us become stronger and grow in character. And He gives us a hope that does not disappoint. He has given us the Holy Spirit to be with us and work this hope in us. Is Jesus your only hope? Rejoice in the grace that comes through Him!

Where is God?

Dr. John Wiers

August 7, 2026

Exodus 1

There have been hard times in all of our lives when we have wondered, "Where is God?" And even though God's presence is a central theme in the Book of Exodus, where do we see Him here in this first chapter? His apparent absence drives us to go looking for Him, and we do see Him here in several ways. God was busy fulfilling His coverant promises that He gave in the Book of Genesis to His covenant people. He caused His people to multiply, despite the Egyptians' satanic attempt to stop His plan of redemption. He was also fulfilling His original plans for His Creation, which He has not given up on, despite our rebellion against Him. In addition, He was blessing His people with many children, even though that was a motivator of the Egyptians' hatred for them. He was working with ordinary midwives in the ordinary circumstances of bearing children to bring about His purposes. The Lord may seem absent sometimes, but He was there for the Hebrews and He is still there for us now. He has never abandoned us, He has redeemed us through Jesus' perfect sacrifice on the cross, and He still blesses us. Nothing at all can ever separate us from the love of God in Jesus Christ!

God's Wrath and Our Only Hope

Bryan Schneider

April 24, 2026

Romans 3:9-20

We always tend to say that we are not the one who has a sin problem. But in this passage, God says that we do indeed. It's time for us to admit that we are sinners, and to look to Jesus alone for justification. No person or group has moral superiority before God. And we can't grade ourselves on a sliding scale and say we're better than others. Our default mode is sin, and we can't blame others or our circumstances for it. The evidence is against us. What hope do we have? God's Law condemns and silences us, and our only hope is for our Judge to look at our Advocate: Jesus Christ, who never sinned, and resisted all temptation. He takes His robe of righteousness and puts it on us. Stop trying to justify yourself. Don't whitewash your sin. Call it for what it is, confess it to the Lord, and look to Christ for forgiveness.
