Few disasters are more well-known than the sinking of the Titanic. The Titanic was an amazing marvel of human ingenuity and achievement created to make transatlantic ocean crossings between Southampton, England and New York City. But it had a major flaw. The quality of the steel and rivets was too weak and brittle to withstand contact with any of the icebergs floating in the Atlantic Ocean. A lot of people put their faith in what they thought was able to carry them safely to the other shore. What they thought was substantial was actually paper thin and couldn’t hold up against an Atlantic iceberg.

When it comes to salvation, people place their faith in a lot of things. Some place their trust in their own morality, their own good works. Others place their faith in physical acts of religion. They believe their church attendance, membership, baptism or communion will carry them safely to the other shore. Biblically speaking, however, none of those will stand up against the iceberg of God. We will all meet God, and when we stand before Him, all our arguments of works and religion will be revealed as paper thin. They won’t hold up. Our only hope is faith in Jesus.

Paul reminds of us this truth as we study Romans this weekend. I pray you’ll make plans to join us. You can’t love Christ and not love His body, the Church. Gather with us as we worship the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God to whom belongs the glory forever and ever. Amen.
