God's Great Display of LoveGod’s greatest act of love for His people consists in His giving up His only begotten Son to die for their sins.

The Disobedience of AdamWe sin because we are sinners. Because Adam was the federal head of all humanity, his disobedience resulted in all mankind (except Jesus) being born in a state of sin. This session will show how Adam’s sin puts us in a state in which we need the gospel of Christ and how death proves that even those without God’s special revelation are guilty of breaking His law (Rom. 5:12–14). |
Javier Domínguez |

The Obedience of ChristBecause we are declared guilty lawbreakers before God’s heavenly courtroom, we must be declared legally righteous to inherit eternal life. This message will demonstrate that we are justified by the perfect obedience of Christ, that His one act of obedience encompasses the entire course of His life and death for His people (Rom. 5:15–21). |
