The Evidence For God
Riverside Calvary Chapel’s Apologetics Conference with Charlie Campbell.
Session 1 – “The Evidence For God”
Song of Solomon 1:1-2:7 – Reflections On The Wedding Day
Part 1 of this Biblical love story detailing the relationship between Solomon and the Shulamite woman. Through this story we see that God’s intent for us is to enjoy pure intimacy in our relationships.
Bible Text: Song of Solomon 1:1-2:7
Romans 5:1-5 – The Joy of Justification
After Paul has gone through the fact that we have been justified by faith, he now points us to the wonderful benefits that come from being justified and right with God.
Bible Text: Romans 5:1-5
Romans 4 – Righteousness Credited To You
To think that we can ever be right with God seems almost an impossibility at times. And it is if we’re relying on ourselves. The simple truth is that Jesus’ righteousness gets credited to our lives when we place our faith in Him. Listen in as we see how this works.
Bible Text: Romans 4:1-25
Giving Thanks To God
Guest speaker Sandy Adams (pastor of Calvary Chapel Stone Mountain) shares on how to give thanks to the Lord, based on some key instructions out of Psalm 116.
Bible Text: Psalm 116:12-15
Romans 3 – Righteousness Revealed
In this wonderful chapter Paul concludes his trial of humanity to reveal our sin and guilt before God. Yet he doesn’t leave us there. He brings us to the great good news of the Gospel – that we can be righteous before God in spite of our sin and guilt. And it’s all possible through faith in Jesus Christ!
Bible Text: Romans 3:1-31
Romans 2:17-29 – The Jew and You
Paul takes a look at the Jews in this passage to reveal even their unrighteousness though they had the law. It’s not having the law that means anything, it’s keeping the law. We can all fall in to the trap of depending on our own works or efforts to make us right with God. But righteousness only comes through faith in Jesus.
Bible Text: Romans 2:17-29
Romans 2:1-16 – Judging or Judged?
A temptation we can all have is to think we’re doing ok by comparing ourselves to others. Paul addresses this in our passage and reveals to us that we will never have enough morality to stand righteous before God, unless we’re standing in the righteousness of Jesus alone.
Bible Text: Romans 2:1-16
Romans 1:18-32 – The Black Backdrop Of Humanity
We need to understand why we need saving if we’re going to receive salvation at all. Unless there is something to be saved from, there is no point in talking about salvation. This is exactly where Paul takes us here in this passage as he reveals the wrath of God, how we deserve that, but also how the gospel reveals the way to be saved.
Bible Text: Romans 1:18-32
Romans 1:1-17 – Proud Of The Gospel
In our introduction to Romans we see Paul’s heart and desire to go to Rome to encourage and equip the believers with the great gospel of God.
Bible Text: Romans 1:1-17
The Virtual vs. Virtuous Woman
This well known chapter is a great example of the woman who is walking in wisdom and showing herself a woman of God. Don’t settle for an imitation, but strive to find a wife (or husband) of virtue.
Bible Text: Proverbs 31:1-31
A Word From Agur
Agur, a possible contemporary of Solomon, and another man of wisdom, gives some great insights for us on the greatness of God and lessons from nature.
Bible Text: Proverbs 30:1-33
