Romans
His Life For Us
Romans 5:18-21 | Josh Feil

Religion and the Good News
This topical sermon considers the nature of religion and the nature of the gospel in comparison. It looks at ancient and current religions, what the word “gospel” itself means, the similarity or universal principle of religion, the need for salvation, and the difference and suprermacy of the gospel to meet that need. This sermon was originally preached April 19th, 2009 at The Resolved Church in San Diego, CA.
The Book of Romans
This series covers our study through the book of Romans. These sermons with careful and slow exegetical expository coverage move through each chapter and verse following the theme and thesis of the book that the gospel is the power of God unto salvation for everyone who believes. These sermons were primarily preached by Pastor Duane Smets from April 2005 to November 2008 at The Resolved Church, San Diego, CA in its first three years of existence. Audio from the first year is unavailable.
