Storm Theology - Romans 8:18-28

Three Truths:

1. The Source of all Storms (v. 19-22)

2. The Source of our Sorrow (v. 23)

3. The Source of our Strength (v. 24-28)

Three Sources of Strength:

• The Promise of God (v. 24)

• The Presence of God (v.25-27)

• The Purposes of God (v. 28)

How does God use storms? 

• To display His great power and might
• To bring judgment
• To bring repentance and grow faith

The world focuses on the size of the storm.
We should focus on the size of the Savior.
