God Replaced

FCC Vision Statement: Building on Exposition, Centering on Christ, Dying in Community, Serving on Mission

Romans 1:22-25

22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.

DEEP SHEET: Sermon Study Questions
1.   According to Paul’s logic in this section, what is the relationship between ingratitude and idolatry?  How does this help us wage war against the idols in our lives?
2.   What does it mean to say that we are worshipping and religious creatures by nature?  How does this guide us in relating to unbelievers?
3.   How can we help our children identify idols in their hearts?  What impact does our own idolatry have on them?
4.   What are the layers of contrast that Paul lays out in v. 23?  How does his language serve to show the folly and wickedness of idolatry?
5.   Why is idolatry inherently satanic?  How does this help us to understand Satan’s tactics when he tempts us?
6.   Why does Paul break out in praise at the end of v. 25?

The Truth Rejected

FCC Vision Statement: Building on Exposition, Centering on Christ, Dying in Community, Serving on Mission

Romans 1:19-21

19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

June 7, 2020

DEEP SHEET: Sermon Study Questions
1.   How does Romans 1:18-3:20 fit within the larger section of 1:18-4:25?  Who does Paul have in mind in 1:18-32?
2.   How is God’s revelation of himself in nature both clear and considerable?  How would you explain to someone that the creation points to God?
3.   Why does Paul say that human beings are without excuse?  How should this passage guide our thinking on apologetics?
4.   How does failing to honor and give thanks to God lead to all other sins?  What does this imply for growth as a Christian?
5.   How does Paul describe the inner workings of the unbeliever at the end of v. 21?  How does this description enhance our understanding of the nature of sin?

DEEP SHEET: Sermon Study Questions
1.   What are some practical ways that we can fight the temptation to be judgmental and divisive as we prepare to regather?
2.   Why is the notion of God’s wrath problematic and offensive to many?
3.   Why is it so important that Christians not avoid topics such as sin, wrath, and hell?
4.   How should we understand God’s wrath? What does it mean to say that it is being revealed in the present?
5.   How is Paul’s language for human sinfulness both comprehensive and God-centered?
6.   What does Paul mean when he says that human beings suppress the truth by/in unrighteousness? How have you seen this play out in people’s lives, and how does it affect the way we evangelize?
