Romans
The Book of Romans, authored by the Apostle Paul, is a profound theological epistle found in the New Testament of the Bible. Its primary purpose is to articulate the fundamental principles of Christian faith and to address the relationship between Jews and Gentiles within the context of salvation. Thematically, Romans discusses the nature of sin, the righteousness of God, justification by faith, and the role of grace in the believer’s life. Paul begins by establishing that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) and emphasizes that justification comes through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1).Moreover, Romans serves as a bridge between Jewish and Gentile Christians, explaining how both groups are included in God's redemptive plan. Paul argues that the Gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Gentile (Romans 1:16). The epistle culminates in a call for believers to live in accordance with their faith, urging them to present their bodies as living sacrifices (Romans 12:1) and to be transformed by the renewing of their minds (Romans 12:2). Thus, Romans is not only a theological treatise but also a practical guide for Christian living, emphasizing the transformative power of the Gospel.
