  • Summary

  • In this first part of the series, we explore Apostle Paul's profound theological teachings in Romans chapters 1-11. The audience of Paul's letter to the Romans consisted primarily of both Jewish and Gentile Christians living in Rome. Paul wrote to address a diverse Christian community that was grappling with tensions between Jewish and Gentile believers regarding the role of the Mosaic Law, righteousness, and salvation. The letter seeks to unify these groups by emphasizing that salvation is available to all through faith in Jesus Christ, regardless of their ethnic or religious background. Paul wrote the Book of Romans before he visited Rome. When he composed the letter, likely around 57 AD, he had not yet been to Rome but expressed his desire to visit the believers there. Paul likely visited Rome around 60 AD. This visit occurred when he was brought to Rome as a prisoner after appealing to Caesar while under arrest in Jerusalem. In the book of Romans, Paul masterfully addresses the human condition, the universality of sin, and God's plan of salvation through grace. We unpack key themes such as justification by faith, the purpose of the law, and God's righteousness offered to both Jews and Gentiles. The book of Romans is a prime example of Paul's iron-clad argumentative style, both precise and logical. Part 2 will delve into the practical application of these truths in daily life, as outlined in the remaining chapters.
