The Message of the Bible

March 19, 2024

Romans 15:4 — It is a great error to think that the Bible is just another ancient book. Why is this? The answer, as Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones proclaims in this sermon on Romans 15:4, is found in the unique nature of Scripture as the very word and revelation of God. In the pages of the Old and New Testaments we find God’s will revealed to His people. This should cause us to read Scripture as one divinely gifted message that has been given for the edification and building up of all believers. All must believe Scripture because it is the very Word of God and carries the fullest authority possible. What does God reveal to His people in Scripture? There is one overarching theme is Scripture, and this is the salvation of God’s people by His Son, Jesus Christ. We must read Scripture as one whole work by one author with one message. This message is one of victory and salvation wherein Jesus Christ dies upon the cross for the salvation of all who believe and the redemption of the whole world. Jesus is making all things new by His death, resurrection, and rule. So, when we come to Scripture we should come to learn about God and what He has accomplished through His Son, Jesus Christ.
