What if everything you thought made you right with God—your goodness, your works, your religious rituals—wasn’t enough?

The Book of Romans is not just another epistle—it is the thunderous declaration of God’s righteousness and humanity’s only hope for redemption. In a world drowning in self-righteousness, confusion about grace, and shallow understandings of sin, Romans confronts the chaos with clarity. The apostle Paul lays bare the ...

What follows is not a translation in the ordinary sense of the word. It’s more like a paraphrase. Rather than worry over the letter of the text, the goal has been to illuminate the large scale patterns that structure it. The King James Version, for instance, renders Paul’s letter with uncanny beauty but is opaque as an argument. Modern translations tend to have the same problem. Their overriding concern is with the letter of the text, not with its logic. As a result, Paul’s forest is always getting sacrificed for the sake of his trees. But Paul’s work is too important, his good news...

In c. 57 AD, a battered wooden merchant’s case arrives in the sprawling, pagan capital of Rome, carried by a lone woman named Phoebe. Inside is a single, heavy scroll of Egyptian papyrus: the Apostle Paul’s Epistle to the Romans. As the patriarchs of the underground house churches unseal the letter, they are struck by a theological earthquake. Paul’s unyielding words strip away the pride of the Jewish legalists and ...

Romans chapter 9 has become a dividing point between competing theologies for years. Calvinistic authors ground much of their interpretation of the Bible and understanding of God's nature and character from this particular chapter. Christians that are unaware of the theological traps they can fall into by blindly following Calvin's theological determinism can result in a distorted view of God's nature and character. The consequence of this is surely problematic when applying a predetermined view of God to the rest of the Bible that the Scriptures simply will not support. This has at times ...
