THEME of Romans
Righteousness of God in Salvation
THE GOSPEL IS THE POWER OF GOD FOR SALVATION
Romans 1:16-17
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”
UNBELIEVERS SUPPRESS THE TRUTH

GOD’S WRATH TOWARD THE UNRIGHTEOUS
Romans 1:18-32
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth… Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
WITHOUT EXCUSE

SEND, PREACH, HEAR, BELIEVE
Romans 10:14-15
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard?

ISRAEL’S SPIRITUAL CONDITION

And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,
“The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob”; 27 “and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins.” 28 As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.

NO JUDGMENT ON ONE ANOTHER

NO STUMBLING BLOCK FOR A BROTHER

DISCIPLINE FOR DIVISIVENESS: AVOID THEM

GOD IS WISE

to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.
