Romans 3: Look And Lean | Weston Stutz

​​​​​​

This week we jumped into Romans 3 in our series, “A New Humanity.”

​

Paul, in chapter 3, gives us what some Bible scholars call the most important sentence in the Bible. It is the foundation of The Gospel, as it shows us where it all starts. Paul will encourage us to first “Look” at the human condition, to see how broken we really are on our own strength. He does this to help us “Lean” on, not our works, but Jesus’ works.

​

Do you ever lean or rely on the wrong thing? Sometimes in life we fall, get lost, or become confused or distraught. But often this happens simply because we chose to rely on the wrong source of strength in the first place. Strength is only as good as its source, and when we choose to rely on the wrong things in life, for life, we fall.

​

Paul encourages us to look for a more reliable source for strength in our life, and thereby shows us how to lean on the Lord in a new way and powerful way. We unpacked this in this week’s message called, “Look and Lean.”
