Ch01-1_Introduction to Romans Chapter 1

“The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans” can be referred to as the treasure of the Bible. It mainly deals with how one can obtain God’s righteousness by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. Comparing Romans to the Epistle of James, someone defined the former as ‘the word of treasures’ and the latter as ‘the words of straw.’ However, James is the word of God just as Romans is. The only difference is that Romans is precious because it provides a general overview of the Bible, whereas James is precious for it is the word that makes the righteous live by God’s will.
