Sunday's sermon: Jesus Christ Was Raised for Our Justification https://www.scottlapierre.org/raised-to-life-for-our-justification/
Romans 4:25 says, “[Jesus Christ] was delivered up for our trespasses and raised to life for our justification.” The first half looks back to Good Friday when Jesus died for our sins. The second half moves to Easter Sunday. This is what we’re celebrating today: Jesus being resurrected for our justification. Justified means, “Declared righteous.” What does this have to do with Jesus’s resurrection? Jesus is our Substitute. He died in our place and took the punishment we deserve. If He stayed dead that would mean He was a sinner and unable to save us. But his resurrection reveals he is our perfect substitute who could die in our place and take the punishment we deserve.

He is risen!
In Luke 24:1-6, the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus declare Christ’s victory over sin and death. Don’t seek life among the dead. Life is found only in the risen Lord Jesus.

What does it mean to have wisdom according to Scripture?
In this sermon and companion blog post, I look at what Proverbs teaches about wisdom and foolishness. Biblical wisdom is more than knowledge or life experience. It begins with fearing the Lord and is revealed in the way we live.
This message is for anyone who wants to make decisions with discernment, resist foolishness, and grow in godliness.
