Reflecting on the Sermon: 1/30/11

We were still in Romans 8:28-30 this week, and I am glad.  What an encouraging set of verses.  I found the whole sermon very encouraging, but the part that stuck out to me was at the end when Rod addressed the question, "How do I know if I'm elect?".  He said the answer is to ask yourself: 1. Do I hate my sin, 2. Do I love God.  Only the Spirit of God can produce a genuine hatred of my sin (as I see how horrible it is) and a genuine love for God (as I see how wonderful he is).  There were many other helpful things from this sermon.  If you missed it, I encourage you to check it out (it will hopefully be on the website soon).
