Romans 1 (Part 2)

RomansSteve Gregg
In this discussion, Steve Gregg offers insights into the second part of Romans 1, exploring the meaning of phrases and words in their historical and biblical context. He highlights the power of the Gospel message, which reveals the righteousness of God that is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ. Gregg also emphasizes the concept of faithfulness as a covenantal relationship between God and believers, where both parties are expected to fulfill their obligations, rather than equating it with perfect performance or earning salvation through works. Ultimately, he encourages his audience to critically examine traditional and denominational beliefs in light of biblical truth.
