“Made New People for New Lives”
Sermon given by Pastor Robb on May 17, 2026.
Continues the Surpassing Scope and Scale of Salvation sermon series.
Covers Romans 5:12-21 and Mark 8:27-9:1.
In our understanding of salvation and the atonement, the forgiveness of sins and invitation to new life for individuals understandably gets a significant focus, but the Bible also praises Jesus for achieving a redemption and recreation of all of humanity and the establishment of a whole new character of life we can participate in when this new humanity is shared with us. We may find it is different than we expect, or we may doubt that we really might be able to take up a cross and follow Jesus in this way, but the hope of scripture calls us to believe we all can have in common not just with Adam, but with Immanuel, Jesus, as well.
