This audio is taken from the third zoom meeting of our Lent Course on March 10th, 2021. In this session we recapped the previous weeks, and then looked at Romans 4-5. Paul appeals to the story of Abraham, to demonstrate how the God's blessing can only flow fully through faith, not as an earned reward. He then contrasts Jesus to Adam, showing how the gift that flows through Jesus exceeds the power of whatever sin came before. Jesus is a like a second Adam, a new humanity, into which, by faith, we are included.
