Theology Fueled Worship
Scripture: Romans 11:33-36
In Romans 11:33–36, Paul does not end one of the most difficult sections of Romans with a chart, table, or tidy explanation. He ends with worship. After considering God’s purposes in election, Israel, Gentile inclusion, mercy, and judgment, Paul lifts his eyes to the depth of God’s wisdom and knowledge.
In this sermon, Pastor Zach shows that every human heart is always appraising something as weighty, glorious, and worthy of attention. The question is not whether we worship, but what we behold as most worthy. When we behold offense, approval, money, or ourselves, we become anxious, angry, proud, or afraid. But when we behold God as he truly is—wise beyond our reach, righteous beyond our testing, merciful beyond repayment, and glorious as the beginning and end of all things—our hearts are drawn into true worship.
Before moving into Romans 12 and the call to offer our bodies as living sacrifices, this sermon invites us to pause, feel our smallness before the living God, and find comfort in the truth that our lives are from him, through him, and to him.
