Artist depiction of the Apostle Paul writing his epistles
This is the third message in a multi-part series on the Apostle Paul's epistle to the Romans. In this sermon, Dr. Thiel covers each and every verse of the 7th and 8th chapters of the Book of Romans. He also brings in comments from the late Pastor General of the old Radio/Worldwide Church of God, Herbert W. Armstrong. Aspects of God's Spirit, His calling, how human brains differ from animal brains, and God's guarantees are covered. Dr. Thiel covers a couple of biblical definitions of being a Christian, discusses biblical admonitions related to life and obedience, and warns about those who teach others falsely. He also mentions about Christians stumbling, suffering, and the purpose God has for each of us.
