  • Romans 8:31-39 (#33.2026.01.11)
    Jan 15 2026

    In this episode, Scott leads listeners through Romans 8:31-39, focusing on the assurance, hope, and confidence believers can have through God’s promises. He explains that the gospel is not only for those coming to faith but remains essential for believers, especially when life’s challenges bring doubt, accusation, or suffering. Using the structure of Paul’s rhetorical questions in Romans, Scott Keffer walks through practical issues like feeling opposed by enemies, the world, friends, or even family, and contrasts these with the unwavering truth that God is on the believer’s side.

    The episode covers the reality of accusations—both internal and external—and how believers can respond, not with self-effort or emotion, but by resting in the verdict that God has already justified them through Christ. Scott discusses feelings of separation from God’s love during pain and suffering, reminding listeners that nothing can separate those in Christ from His limitless love.

  • Romans 8:29-32 #32.2025.12.07
    Dec 11 2025

    Scott continues the study of Romans, exploring Romans 8:29–32 and what it means to be considered "sons of the Most High God" and the concept of inheritance found within the gospel for believers. Scott unpacks key biblical doctrines—foreknowledge, predestination, adoption, calling, justification, and glorification—emphasizing their connection to God’s ultimate purpose: the praise of His glory and the revelation of His grace. He clarifies that salvation encompasses not just a moment of belief, but the entire journey from being called and justified to ultimate glorification and intimate fellowship with God.

    Throughout the episode, Scott uses examples from scripture to illustrate how believers are adopted into God’s family, marked out for a purpose, and given the promise of transformation into Christ’s image. The discussion addresses common questions and doubts about God’s intentions, reinforcing the assurance that if God is for us, no one can stand against us.
