Every believer has to come to a point where you realize, "I've got nothing else. I'm gonna hitch my wagon to the Lord of the universe."

We NEED people who can honestly tell us "our breath stinks".

Stop comparing yourself to others. Judge yourself against the ONE we ought — Jesus.

There is something within us all that at times suspects our own sins aren't quite as bad or as problematic as someone else's. We compare against each other, finding false hope in self-serving bias. In doing so, we show a reluctance to consistently see our deeds before the backdrop of God's pure light and holiness.

God's righteousness renders ours as filthy rags, so we fear judgement according to His standard; but in this, we're in error. To rightly evaluate our works in the light of God's holiness is to soon find hope, for He is merciful and gracious to all who confess that their deeds all fall short of His glory.

Join us this Sunday as we meditate on Romans 2:6-11 and find that God's standard is indeed holiness; all--Jew and Gentile alike--fall short of it; and why there is yet great news for all.

All have sinned, says the Apostle Paul; indeed, all are sinners. This sad state should bring about deep humility, repentance, faith in God—who alone is Holy—and compassion for our neighbors.

Tragically, we often give in to the temptation to attempt feeling better about ourselves not by faith in the fact that Christ is the Savior of sinners, but through judging others with a self-serving imbalanced scale. As always, there is yet hope!

Join us (and Pastor Stephen – back from Costa Rica) this Sunday as we consider the beginning of Romans chapter 2 and rejoice in the kindness of God.
