Verse by verse, Dr. Sproul unfolds the vast truths that Paul has clearly and carefully woven throughout this book.

It can be argued that no book of the Bible has had a greater effect on Christianity than the book of Romans.

In this classic commentary by Dr. Warren Wiersbe, you can refresh your own understanding of this seminal work, Paul's masterpiece letter to the church in Rome.

As we come to the book of Romans, we see that it is one of several epistles written by Paul, the apostle. He wrote approximately two thirds of the New Testament. This letter was written about ten years into Paul’s ministry and about ten years from his death. The foundation of the New Covenant church had mostly been laid by the other apostles; Paul was visiting and writing to various churches to make sure they were walking out what had been taught to them. It is common in Paul’s writings for the first part of a letter to be theological and the last part to be practical, applying the ...

Poetically written, symmetrically presented, structurally solid, and spoken with deep emotion, Romans 9 presents Paul’s masterful answer to his objectors who cried—how can you say that Jesus is Israel’s Messiah when so many of our people do not believe? He answered, God is faithful. His word has not failed. Let me show you how. But the beauty of Romans 9 has been lost. It has been lost in a controversy over its meaning as ...

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 ...

What is the nature of our own personal involvement in the process? And how do we know if we are making progress?
