PART 1 of 5 – David Gilliland opens a series of messages on the fundamental and vital topic of “justification by faith” in the epistle of Paul to the Romans, with a look at the need for it brought about by human guilt. He works his way through Chs 1 and 2 and into the first half of Ch 3 tracing the scope, the seriousness, the standard, the statement, the sentence, and the silence of the guilt of humanity. This lays the groundwork for the ground of justification taken up in the next message. Readings: Rom 1:16-20, 2:1, 17, 21-24, 3:9, 19-20 (Message preached in Ballywatermoy, 2005)
