Is God Fair? Shallow readers of Scripture will tell you He is not
Our pastor starts off by talking about our growing Internet audience. Back then we started putting sermons onto SermonAudio. We were already growing a great bunch of people on PodBean and iTunes. That has grown now to where iHeart and Spotify have picked us up. But the most amazing response is from SermonAudio, and we have to give them a lot of credit. Today, at the end of December, 2021, we'll have over two hundred and four thousand downloads from that platform. And now SA let's us simulcast Live to them and Facebook, and we put up that Live to our Live page on the Cliffside website. BTW, we'll start expanding our push notifications on our app, so be sure that if you already have the app to turn on notifications, but if you haven't got it yet, go to the home page of our site at www.cliffside.org. You can download it there for free and have access to everything on the website plus the ability to take notes as you listen or watch our pastor's lectures. Okay... enough about us. On to the lecture... We left off last week at Matthew 20 and Romans 3, None are righteous and how the denarius in Matthew 20 relates to Romans 3. Paul says, if salvation is by grace alone, what good is works? You have to define the first and the last here in Matthew 20. What does that have to do with Romans 3? This vineyard owner hires people from the first hour to the last hour but he pays them all the same wage. Is that fair? The shallow readers of Scripture find themselves agreeing with the complainers. Then our pastor tells a good political joke. There's more to this lecture so press play and let the advanced class begin. Also, be sure and support this ministry as you are able.
