The Timeless Gospel

Episode 62 Romans 11: 30-36 "The Walls are Thin-Angela's Story"

In episode 62, Larry recaps the first 11 chapters of Romans, and focusses on God's mercy in verses 30 through 36 of chapter 11.
Larry explains to his audience the shift in Paul's letter that will happen in chapter 12.  Christian living is Paul's focus for the remainder of the book, and Larry emphasizes the importance of remembering the position the Christian has been given in Christ, as that same Christian is exhorted by Paul to live rightly.
Faithann and Joy welcome Angela to the podcast during the discussion portion.  Angela talks about her experience early in her Christian life in the mission field in Japan.  She also talks about her more recent experiences in Oregon being part of a street preaching ministry with her church outside of an abortion clinic.

Episode 60 Romans 10:13-16 The Seduction of a Performance Based Righteousness

In episode 60, Larry continues preaching through Romans 10, with a powerful review of the past 3 sermons from previous 
Episode 60 begins with a detailed, powerful review of how righteousness is revealed in the gospel, and how the Jews missed this and they are in danger of missing salvation altogether.
Larry explains what it means to be ashamed, and the danger of taking refuge in a lie, the lie of a works based righteousness as your standing before God.
Joy returns to the podcast for the discussion with Faithann after the sermon.

Episode 59 Romans 10:1-12 "You Just Need a Little Faith"

In this powerful sermon, Larry continues through Romans 10,  diving deep into the relationship between the Old Testament law and faith in Jesus Christ. Learn why the 642 Old Testament laws, while holy and beneficial for life, hold no power in determining our righteousness before God. Instead, righteousness is a gift from God, made available through faith in Christ’s sacrifice.
Faithann welcomes returning guest Debbie for the discussion portion of the episode.
 
Key highlights:
The Role of the Law: The law is good and holy but cannot save us or make us more acceptable to God.
Christ as the Fulfillment: Jesus is the end of the law for righteousness, meaning our standing before God depends on faith, not on our ability to follow rules.
Faith Over Signs: True faith doesn’t rely on miracles or visible signs but trusts in God’s promises.
Practical Living: Observing dietary laws, traditions, or moral codes is fine but has no bearing on our spiritual standing. Our actions impact earthly outcomes but not our salvation.
Confession and Belief: Salvation comes through believing in Christ’s resurrection and confessing Him as Lord, showing faith through our words and lives.
God’s Abundant Riches: Living by faith opens us to the fullness of God’s blessings, not through works but through trust in His grace.
Scriptural Focus: Romans 10, Deuteronomy 30
Takeaway Message:Righteousness is not earned through obedience to the law or human effort. It’s a gift from God, received through faith in Jesus. Let go of striving and embrace the freedom of living by faith.
Tune in to discover how this truth can transform your relationship with God and others.

Episode 58 Romans 10:1-4 "The Road Stopped"

In today’s episode, Faithann invites returning guest Debbie to a dive deep into the message of Romans 10:1–4.  They explore Larry's teaching concerning what it means to have a "zeal for God" that is not guided by knowledge. They unpack how righteousness isn’t about following the law or being perfect but about understanding God’s incredible plan to save sinners through faith in Jesus Christ.
Key Takeaways:
Zeal Without Knowledge: You can be passionate about God but miss the truth if you don’t understand His righteousness.
God’s Righteousness Explained: It’s not about being perfect or following rules. It’s about how God, through Jesus, made a way for sinners to be declared righteous while they are still ungoldly.
Faith, Not Law: Christ ended the law as a way to become right with God. Now, belief in Jesus leads to salvation.
Practical Application: Faith begins with believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. 
Thought to Ponder:Are you striving to follow rules to earn God’s approval, or have you embraced the righteousness that comes through faith in Christ?
Listen now to understand why faith in Jesus is the only way to true righteousness and salvation.

In episode 57, we skip ahead in the early 2000s, to a home Bible study.  Home Bible studies were an integral part of Larry and Linda's ministry.  It was rare Larry didn't have at least one home Bible study going at any given time.
Joy and Faithann welcome Kirsten on the podcast.  Kirsten is Cheryl's daughter, Faithann's daughter in law, and a precious sister in Christ and member of the church Larry taught at until he died, New Covenant Bible Church.
Kirsten gives us a glimpse into how Larry's ministry affected her, a perspective that was as touching as it was surprising for Joy and Faithann to learn.
