Romans Intro (Part 3)

RomansSteve Gregg
An outline of the book of Romans is necessary for grasping its message, as it covers various themes and shifts directions frequently. The traditional outline of the book centers on the theological treatise of the initial eleven chapters, followed by practical subjects in the latter part. Chapters one through eight of Romans detail the Gospel of salvation, with Paul making a progression of arguments for its positions, starting with the concept of universal sinfulness. Meanwhile, Chapters nine through eleven address a different subject, Israel, and God's guarantees to them.
