PEARL FOR EACH DAY:
(Romans ~Introduction.)
Romans is the longest and most systematically reasoned of Paul’s letters. Paul announced it’s theme in the Gospel is God’s power for salvation, because it shows us that the righteousness of God is through faith for all who believe. Paul explains the need for justification through faith because of sin.
He then spells out the results of justification by faith, in terms both present experience and future hope.
In the next three chapters he expresses his sorrow, that many of his fellow Israelites have not embraced the Gospel, and he wrestles with the theological implications of this. He concludes by describing how the Gospel should affect one’s every day life. Paul wrote this letter to Rome in about A.D. 57.
