Sin and Redemption

Pastor Bill Bush · Jul 28, 2025

In a culture that insists all religious paths lead to the same destination, Pastor Bill argues from Romans and John 14:6 that Jesus is uniquely and exclusively the way to God. Every other system tells people to do more and try harder, but only the gospel acknowledges that the real human problem is sin — a terminal missing of God's perfect standard — and that only Jesus, who lived the perfect life we couldn't live, paid the penalty we couldn't pay, and conquered death by rising from the grave, can solve it. Salvation comes not by adding Jesus to our own efforts but by transferring our faith entirely to Him.

Drawing from Romans 1:16–32, Pastor Bill Bush argues that the world's deepening confusion, moral distortion, and relational brokenness are not random — they are the present-tense judgment of a holy God against humanity's twin charges of godlessness (living as though God does not exist) and wickedness (living as though we are God). The only rescue from this downward spiral is the gospel: the good news that Jesus came — which is Christmas — and that through faith in Him we are made right before God and find the life, identity, and joy we have been searching for everywhere else.

Pastor Jeff argues that what people are truly searching for — peace, contentment, joy, and life that endures through dark circumstances — cannot be found by chasing the things that seem right to us. Drawing on Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus in John 3 and the Old Testament story of the bronze snake in Numbers 21, he shows that all of us are 'snake-bitten' by sin and separated from the life God intends. Just as the Israelites were healed by looking in faith at the snake on the pole, we are born again and given eternal life by looking in faith to Jesus, who took our sin upon Himself on the cross.
