(Romans – introduction.)

Romans is the longest and most systematically reasoned of Paul’s letters. Paul announces its theme in (1:16-17): 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. (1:16 – 4:25). He then spells out the results of justification by faith in terms of both present experience and future hope. (5:1-8:39)

In țhe 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. (Chs. 9-11). He concludes by describing how the Gospel should affect one’s everyday life. (Chs. 12-16)

Paul wrote this letter to Rome in about A.D. 57.

1. “Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Gospel of God,

2. “which He promised beforehand through His Prophets in the Holy Scriptures,

3. “concerning His Son, Who was descended from David according to the flesh,

4. “and was declared to be the Son of God in Power, according to the Spirit of Holiness by His resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

5. “through Whom we have received Grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith, for the sake of His Name among all the nations,

6. “including you who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

7. “To all those in Rome, who are loved by God, and called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

8. “First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

9. “For God is my Witness, Whom I serve with my spirit, in the Gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I mention you,

10. “always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God’s Will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.”

(Ek vertrou die Heilige Gees van God om my van die korrekte Skriflesing gedeelte te voorsien elke dag, volgens u behoeftes en verwagtinge. Aan Hom kom toe alle eer, heerlikheid, krag, mag, majesteit, lofprysing, aanbidding, en danksegging, van nou af tot in ewigheid.

I am trusting the Holy Spirit of God to reveal the correct portion of Scripture to me every day, according to your needs and expectations. 

To Him be all glory, honour, power, might, majesty, praise, worship and thanksgiving, from now and forever more.)

PAULUS HET ALMAL ONTVANG WAT HOM KOM BESOEK HET:

27. ‘+Hierdíe volk se verstand is afgestomp: hulle het hulle ore toegedruk en hulle oë toegemaak, sodat hulle nie met hulle oë kan sien, en met hule ore kan hoor, en met hulle verstand verstaan, en hulle bekeer, en Ek hulle gesond maak nie.’+

28. “Julle moet nou goed verstaan dat God se boodskap van redding na die heiden-nasies toe gestuur word.

PAUL WELCOMED ALL WHO CAME TO HIM:

28. “Therefore let it be known to you that this Salvation of God Has been sent to the Gentiles;

29. “for they will listen.”
