In this message from Romans 1:7, we come to the final words of Paul’s introduction and discover a powerful truth about the Christian life: before we are called to do anything, we are first told who we are.

Paul reminds the church that believers are loved by God, called to be saints, and living under grace and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

This sermon explores these truths through a Reformed, expositional lens, showing that our identity is rooted not in our performance, but in God’s sovereign love, effectual calling, and sustaining grace.

As we understand who we are in Christ, we are not only blessed, we are equipped and ready to go, living lives of holiness and confidence, grounded in the Gospel.
