Inner Conflict Resolved

August 9, 2023

 When we come to Christ, does that mean all of a sudden we stop sinning?  Well First John makes it clear that if we claim to be without sin we’re a liar.  While we’re certainly not sinless, we will sin less than before we met our Savior. Here’s pastor Al to bring that to the forefront, as he heads back to Romans, chapter seven.

Jesus Himself said so many times that we can’t keep the Law no matter how hard we try. Of course, that’s why it’s so wonderful to know that we have a Savior who paid the debt once for all. This is The Dwelling Place and we’re pleased to bring you another study from Romans today. Al Pittman takes us now to Romans chapter seven.

The just shall live by faith. Living by faith has great freedom, but it also has great responsibilities. We’re in Romans seven, and today pastor Al underscores the freedom we have from the law.

Today we continue pastor Al’s new series in Titus, titled “Setting Things in Order”. This is one of the so-called “pastoral epistles”, because Paul wrote it to a pastor named Titus, who was struggling with a church body on the Island of Crete. So, the question might be asked, “what does a letter to a pastor have to do with me?”. Can I simply urge you to stay tuned? Because today’s message is practical, challenging, and pointed directly at the heart of every believer - pastor or not!

Death and Life. There is nothing else but those two. We are either alive or we are not. But as we look at Romans six today we’ll see that as we are alive in Christ, we are at the same time dead too sin. But being dead to sin does not mean we are free to do whatever we want.

When Jesus volunteered Himself as the ultimate sin sacrifice for all of mankind, He achieved in one fell swoop what mankind could never achieve on our own: ultimate redemption and freedom from sin! Now, that’s something to rejoice in, and so let’s do that today on The Dwelling Place!

Have you ever thought about what this world would be like if Adam had not sinned in the Garden? It was all downhill from there, wasn’t it? We were redeemed from that original sin , and every sin we commit, by the death of Christ on the cross. All we have to do is accept that wonderful gift! That's the basis for the blessings of justification.

 At the present time, we are making our way through the book of Titus, and in the first chapter, we read of a tough task given to Titus. But this mission was possible through the power of almighty God.  False prophets existed in that day, just as they do in our day.  But the question is, how do we respond to them?

Being justified in Christ carries with it many blessings, one of which is freedom. How we choose to exercise that freedom speaks volumes about our character and walk with the Lord. Join us now in Romans five.

Al attended Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, graduating in 1977 with a degree in Biblical Studies. In 1991 Al and his family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and two years later he joined the staff of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque as an assistant pastor and co-worship leader. In the spring of 1997 the Lord called Al and his family back to Colorado Springs to pastor Calvary Worship Center. In 2006, Al earned his Master’s degree and in 2012 he earned his Doctorate degree in Ministry from Trinity Southwest University in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
