Romans 1 (Part 3)
RomansSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg explores the message and context of Romans 1 in a thought-provoking discussion. He notes that the overarching theme of Romans 1:16-17 is that the Gospel is the power of God's salvation for all those who believe it. He also suggests that some interpretations of Romans may overlook the cultural and historical context in which it was written. Specifically, he posits that chapters one and two of Romans should be understood in the context of the tension between Jewish and Gentile members of the church in Rome.
