Is There Anything More Important Than Justification By Faith Alone?
If you are referring to the preaching that goes on in the church, then I would have to say no. Is there a sermon preached in the NT with any other theme?
I have been preaching forever (it seems like) through Romans and keep expecting the sheep to tire of the message of JBFA but they do not. As I creep closer to chapter 12 and anticipate a change, I realize more and more that chapter 12 is so dependant on chapters 1-11 that I cannot cease preaching the message of JBFA. The words "I beseech ye
therefore" require the message of JBFA before any preaching can be done concerning an acceptable walk before God. Our acceptable walk is our 'reasonable service' only when we fully realize what has been done on our behalf.
The more I preach (around 150 sermons) the more I realize there is nothing more important than JFBA when it comes to preaching.

Sorry for rambling but there was a very positive response to my sermon on JFBA for the elect remnant in Rom 11 this morning. I am still on a 'high'.
