We’re still in the section of Romans where Paul is convicting three different groups of their sin and their need for God. This week we looked at the religious group.

When we began Three Point, it was with a desire and vision to dig deeper into God’s Word (the Bible), to spend time in His presence (prayer),…
For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” Romans 1:17 Have you ever looked at a passage in the Bible and thought to yourself that it really doesn’t apply to you?
