The theme of Romans is the revelation of God’s judging and saving righteousness in the gospel of Jesus Christ. In the cross of Christ, God judges sin and yet at the same time manifests His saving mercy. Romans provides the fullest expression of the apostle Paul’s theology. But Romans is not a theology book to be analyzed and systematized—it is a letter, to some real people. As such, we will consider point by point, the implications of a very important and warm letter to a body of believers, beloved to him as they were to our Lord Jesus Christ.
