Welcome to our study of the book of Romans, where we will explore the teaching of Paul conveyed to the church in Rome. We'll start with an introduction, asking key questions about the text to build a strong foundation. Paul, once a persecutor of Christians, wrote this letter around 57 AD during his stay in Corinth. His audience comprised both Jewish and Gentile believers in Rome. The letter addresses the unity and conflicts within this diverse group, emphasizing key themes: God's intervention in a fallen world, reconciliation through Jesus, the universal nature of the gospel, and Christ's lordship over all aspects of life.

More about this episode: Courage For Life Study of Romans – Introduction
In our journey through Romans, we delve into the rich history and context of Paul's letter. Paul, identified as the author, was once a persecutor of Christians, as noted in Acts chapter 9 but transformed into one of the greatest missionaries the world has ever known, writing 13 New Testament letters. Addressing a diverse church in Rome, Paul wrote this epistle around 57 AD during his stay in Corinth, aiming to unite Jewish and Gentile believers amid their cultural and religious differences. Rome, the political and cultural hub of the Roman Empire, housed these believers in small home churches. Paul had not visited Rome but knew some believers there, indicating his extensive missionary network. The letter, likely delivered by Phoebe (Romans 16:1-2), was meant to address conflicts and provide doctrinal clarity. Key themes include God's effort to restore a fallen world, reconciliation through Jesus, the universal offer of the gospel, and Christ's desire to reign over every part of our lives. Divided into five sections, Romans covers human sinfulness, law versus Spirit, God's faithfulness, Christian practice, and personal greetings. This foundational letter remains a crucial piece of Western literature, offering timeless guidance for believers.
