Romans
Paul
was on his third missionary journey when he wrote this letter to the Romans.
The
theme of this letter is “what it means to be justified (declared righteous by
God) and to live a righteous life.
Paul
talks of God’s righteousness and salvation, God’s righteousness and Israel, and
God’s righteousnes and practical Christian living.
Justification
is God’s gracious act by which He declares a believing sinner righteous in
Jesus Christ because of the work of Christ on the cross.
God
has revealed His righteousness and that is why the Good News needs to be
revealed.
Paul
writes that the “abundance of grace” we have received, and receive everyday,
along with the gift of righteousness enables us to “reign in life” through Jesus
Christ.
Read
Romans as though your life depended on it, because in a very real sense it
does.
Please read the Book listed so that you can understand the word of God to
its fullness. This study comes from The Jeremiah Study Bible, The Bible for
