In Romans 5:18-21, the Apostle Paul contrasts the spiritual consequences brought about by Adam’s disobedience to God with the spiritual privileges brought about by Christ’s obedience to God. And it is in this contrast where the glory of the Gospel is seen most dramatically. Listen as Pastor Stephen Davey expounds this wonderful passage of Scripture for us.
Scandals abound in a drama cast in the ancient Persian Empire. In the midst of political intrigue and betrayal, a beautiful orphan girl suddenly becomes the leading character, as God’s providence rescues His people from certain death. At first glance, Esther is the heroine and Mordecai the master manipulator. Take a closer look, however, and you’ll discover that behind the scenes, God is pulling the strings as His sovereign providence unfolds.
