If you are interested in exploring God's grace, plan of redemption, and righteousness, then you need to invest in a deep relationship with Paul's Epistle to the Romans. This book is an introductory study of Paul's Epistle to the Romans, examining Paul's major themes of atonement, salvation, righteousness, and the righteousness of God. Paul underscores that God is a righteous God who shows no partiality to gender or ethnic makeup. A guiding principle throughout Romans is that God is a righteous God who treats all people equally, Rom 1:16, 17; 3:22. The overwhelming theme of Paul's theology is that God created all things well, but man chose by exercising his God-given free choice to leave God's design for a right relationship with him. Sin is at its root a human decision to turn away from God and his way and pursue a different lifestyle. Underlying this dramatic outline of human decline, Paul lays a foundation of God's unfailing love for his creation, his steadfast grace, and his eternal plan of redemption fortified by his unfailing faithfulness to his promises and profound righteousness. Paul argues that righteousness is a gift from God, it cannot be earned by works, and is available only by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ, Rom 3:20-24. In the cross of Jesus, Christians die to the demands of the Torah Law and sin and are made alive again in Christ through being united with Christ in baptism, Rom 6:1-11. A highlight of Paul's theology is found in Rom 8:37. "we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."
