A message from Pastor Mike

As Paul continues to express his sadness over Israel, he makes the clear point that salvation is received by faith and not by the keeping of the Law (self-righteousness before God); this was Israel’s great error with her Lord.  God is calling us to believe on Him alone for our righteousness, knowing that the Good News of this salvation, received by faith alone, is close and available.  There is no mountain to scale nor valley to descend into; the Word of salvation is right here and right now, available for the willing heart that desires to receive God as their righteousness.  We need only call on Him, believe in our hearts as we confess Jesus with our mouths, and we will be saved.
