scripture: romans 1:21-1:25

19. Romans 1:21-25-Part 3 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 6-7-23 Tonight Pastor Phil puts the spotlight on Part 3 of Romans Chapter 1, verses 21-25. Sadly men look to themselves, the stars, evolution and other humanistic or atheistic ways to explain why they are here—unfortunately their search is devoid of God. Or what one could consider wise in their own eyes. Trading the truth for "The Lie", and professing to be wise, The Word says that man becomes a fool. There is a battle for our minds. A spiritual one. And it started in the Garden of Eden, with the serpent and Eve. Those lies are still being believed, as doctrines of demons. As Pastor Phil pointed out, demons do have doctrines or teachings of their own to deceive as many as possible, and it is ramping up! Paul chose Rome for a reason when he went out to preach. Firstly, because God had sent him, but because Rome was a central 'point of the world' as 'all roads lead to Rome'. So if he shared the Gospel there, whomever received it would carry God's Word, and the testimonies of Paul and the work they'd seen done out into the four corners of the world. Often referred to as the Gospel according to Paul, and the greatest book ever written, Paul's letter to the Romans will become our focus as Pastor Phil continues to lead us through the Word of God. Calvary Chapel Elk Grove is a non-denominational fellowship located in Roselle, a northwest suburb of Chicago in Illinois.

Since God is God and Redeems us, we should faithfully respond to Him, avoiding the allure of idols.
