Everyone Who Calls on the Name of the Lord Will be Saved!
In Romans 10:4-13, the apostle Paul contrasts the law and faith as paths to find righteousness before God. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches righteousness based on the law, righteousness based on faith, and everyone who calls on the name of the Lord.

Christ, the End of the Law!
In Romans 10:1-3, the apostle Paul teaches the Law cannot bring us to the righteousness of God. The only way to obtain the righteousness of God is by faith in Jesus Christ. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches common reasons for missing heaven, seeking to establish our own righteousness, the one true way to heaven, and trusting Him who the law reveals.
“Being ignorant…
A Remnant Saved by Faith
In Romans 9:27-33, the apostle Paul quotes Isaiah to explain why the Jews could not reach salvation by pursuing the law, since it must be pursued by faith.

“Israel who pursued a law that would lead to…
The Purpose of Jesus’ Condemnation
In Romans 8:4, the Apostle Paul explains the purpose of our great salvation is so the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who walk according to the Spirit.

The Three Laws in the Life of a Believer
In Romans 7:21-25, the Apostle Paul explains that the believer struggles with competing laws in his/her life, but the solution is found in Christ Jesus. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches the law of the flesh, the law of God, and the law of the renewed mind.

The Conflict between the Spiritual and Fleshly
In Romans 7:13-14, the apostle Paul is comparing the nature of the law with the nature of our sinful flesh. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches the conflict between two natures, and what the Law can and cannot do.
“For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin.”
I Am Fleshly, Having Been Sold Under Sin
In Romans 7:13-25, the apostle Paul continues his discussion of the law and sin. How do we understand his statement in verse 19? “For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing.” Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven presents three views: a picture of the normal Christian life, a picture of the religious Jew’s life, and a picture of the…
The Law Is Holy, but I Am Not
In Romans 7:7-12, the apostle Paul explains we are not released from the law because the law is sinful, but because we are sinful. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches the law reveals sin, the law awakens sin, and the law exposes sin.
“What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin.”

Not under Law, but under Grace!
In Romans 6:14 it becomes evident that we are under the dominion of sin when we are under the law, but we have found freedom from this dominion when we are brought under grace. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches what is the dominion of sin, what does it mean to be under the law, and what does it mean to be under grace.
