Worship Excerpt from the Sermon Journal, Monday, May 21, 2018 Written by Pastor Tom Harrison Paul is writing to Christians in Rome, though he had yet to travel there. He calls the Christians “saints.” Some church traditions hold “saints” to be people who have earned this title by some action (be a virtuous person, perform miracles, etc.) but Paul used the term in an entirely different way. He says that all of the Christians in Rome were “called to be saints.” Thus, a “saint,” according to Paul, wasn’t an especially virtuous believer, but one who was “set apart for special use.” A saint in the Bible is a living person, not deceased. A saint is a believer. Paul was writing to the saints (not capitalized) in Rome. His introduction (verses 8-17) is full of gratitude and optimism about their calling. 1:16 describes the gospel. 1:17 is THE verse that so greatly impacted Martin Luther and inspired the Protestant Reformation. Salvation is not earned by trying to be good, but righteousness is revealed from God. This keeps us from being “unrighteous” (1:18 – 32) or “self-righteous” (2:1-29).
Join us in Welcoming Tim Tibbles Our New Modern Worship Leader. Tim has been married to his wife April for 23 years and together they have five children. He grew up in the Tulsa area and spent 12 years serving at First Christian Church of Owasso. For the past 5+ years Tim has served as the Worship Pastor for Pantego Bible Church located in Fort Worth Texas. Altogether Tim has served in ministry for the last 17+ years. He and his family are excited to be “coming home” to Tulsa and joining the Asbury family.
