Romans: Endurance and Encouragement (Romans 15:1-7)

The Scriptures sit us down each morning and speak into us, illuminating the hope we have in Christ, and giving me the endurance to do beautiful things for the next 24 hours. Bubba Rainwater

Romans: The Mirror, Not the Window (Romans 14)

We get to choose what where we look . . . in the mirror or out the window. One make you honest. The other makes excuses. Bubba Rainwater

Romans: Already Time to Awaken the Who (Romans 13:11-14, Matthew 24)

Who will you be when the master returns? Paul exhorts the Romans to awaken that person NOW, if not sooner. WHO will you be? Bubba Rainwater

Romans: A Love Owed (Romans 13:8-10)

I rise up from the Cross with a feeling of obligation, but how can I thank Christ with something more than words? I can love people. I can see them and gather my stuff and I can go to them, and not cross over to the other side. Bubba Rainwater

Romans: The Choice to Submit (Romans 13:1-7)

The choice to submit to the authorities in our lives was made at Calvary. We chose Christ and the effect of THAT choice is that we submit to the authorities God has given us. Bubba Rainwater

Luke: The Wee Little Man (Luke 19)

Romans: Good Conquered Evil (Romans 12:21)

A summary of the depiction of a Living Sacrifice from Romans 12 and a glimpse of the victory Jesus won over evil on the day of the Cross. Bubba Rainwater

Romans: Vengeance is God, Grace is Mine (Romans 12:19-20)

At no point in the Scriptures are individuals invited to exact revenge on anyone. God claimed the right to vengeance, so what is my right? My opportunity? God's expectation? Bubba Rainwater

Romans: Prepare for KALOS, Endure the KAKOS (Romans 12:17-18)

KALOS is what Mary was doing when she anointed the feet of Jesus--it was excellent, beautiful, awesome. The Living Sacrifice plots these moments. KAKOS is the opposite of KALOS. The Living Sacrifice never repays KAKOS for KAKOS. Bubba Rainwater

Romans: Junior High Cafeteria Ethics (Romans 12:16)

Remember walking into the school cafeteria back in the day and sizing up where you would sit? Did you see others in the same way? Did you choose to sit with the "lowly"? Jesus taught this at a Sunday Lunch with a group of Pharisees. Bubba Rainwater
