2-15-26: "Beautiful Are the Feet"

This powerful exploration of Romans 10 confronts us with the sobering reality that salvation is not inherited, earned, or assumed—it must be personally received. The message challenges a common misconception in church culture: the idea that proximity to faith equals possession of faith. Growing up in church, knowing Bible stories, or having Christian parents doesn't automatically make us children of God. Instead, we're reminded that Christ is the end of the law for righteousness, meaning our attempts to earn God's favor through good works are futile. The gospel demands a personal response—confessing with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believing in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead. This isn't about religious performance; it's about recognizing we were dead in our sins and desperately needed a Savior. The ground is level at the foot of the cross—no one needs Jesus more or less than anyone else. We're challenged to examine whether we've truly repented and placed our faith in Christ alone, or if we've been coasting on cultural Christianity. The call is clear: have we received the gift of eternal life, or are we still trying to earn wages through our own efforts?
