Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview of the book of Romans, Steve Gregg highlights the two main sections of the book, namely theological and practical. The first eight chapters focus on the gospel, while chapters 9-11 concentrate on Israel and whether God's promises to them have been fulfilled. Throughout the book, Paul addresses the idea of Jewish superiority, emphasizing that being faithful to God and doing good is more important than following the law. The practical section of the book deals with relationships and different convictions within the church, with Paul emphasizing the importance of loving one's neighbor and doing no harm to them in the final chapter.
