This quarter we’re looking at the Book of Romans.
The focus of Romans is all about God and how he makes us right once more, one together with him. As we study Romans this quarter, let’s see past all the details and catch a glimpse of this gracious God who wants us to come back to him for healing, to be remade into his image once more, so we can spend our time here in joy and hope, and experience God through all the ceaseless ages of eternity. This is the good news of God, and how he makes us right once more through our trust in him:
“The good news shows how God puts us right and that it’s all about trust—from beginning to end. As Scripture says, ‘Those who live right do so by trusting God.’” (Romans 1:17 FBV)
God himself takes the initiative and makes us right. Not in an artificial way that ignores the truth of what we are, but with our acceptance, begins his work of transformation, making us right. He sets right the wrong, heals the sin, and remakes us in his wonderful image. In this way he sets right everyone who believes and trusts in Jesus Christ. For many this seems too “easy,” and we want to add in our own contributions! We also want to make it sound complicated and so call it “justification.” But this is only the Latin way of saying “set right” or “make right” in English. The truth is that God saves everyone who trusts him!

Sabbath School on the Move meetings in progress
Speaking at Sligo Church Sabbath School Teachers’ Meeting:
Some of Dr. Gallagher’s articles and books are available here: articles books
Through a free, conversational study of the Scriptures Dr. Jonathan Gallagher invites you to participate in an exciting analysis and discussion of the Sabbath school lesson in the context of the character of God and in the setting of the Great Controversy
This supportive ministry seeks to make the Sabbath school study a relevant and important part of spiritual life by providing actual class discussions in audio format, accompanied by
study sheets. In this way class members become far more involved in discussing vital spiritual issues,particularly focusing on the nature and character of God in the setting of the Great Controversy. By centering the focus on a ‘free, conversational study of the Scriptures,’ Sabbath School On The Move contributes to both the growth and development of individual members and also a wider and more dynamic involvement in the fundamental message and mission of the church.
Recorded at different locations and also online, Sabbath School On The Move is made available free via the Internet to all, providing a rich resource for those teaching the lesson as well as those wishing to be more deeply informed about the subjects presented by the lesson. It is particularly useful to those who for various reasons are not able to attend Sabbath school in person, and provides a “virtual community” to members who can then experience the sense of belonging and participating in the wider church around the world.
