The sermon also addresses the continuity of justification by faith from the Old Testament, using Abraham's example of being credited righteousness through faith.
Chapters six through eight of Romans are discussed, highlighting that justification leads to a life of righteousness, not a license to sin. The sermon touches on the assurance of salvation and God's sovereignty in salvation, as seen in chapters nine through eleven. It concludes with the practical implications of justification by faith in personal conduct, social responsibilities, and church life, urging believers to live out the gospel in all aspects of life.
