Romans 1 (Part 1)
RomansSteve Gregg
The first half of Romans 1 according to Paul's letter emphasizes that the gospel message was not new, but rather a fulfilled promise from the Old Testament. Jesus, as the son of God, was declared through his resurrection and his title as Lord is crucial to acknowledging his divinity. Paul's message of grace and peace are for all nations, and being thankful is crucial to entering God's presence. Overall, the letter to the Romans speaks of righteousness and the importance of recognizing Jesus as the fulfillment of old promises.
