Lesson 7 – Romans Chapter 2:8-25

In the beginning of chapter two, Paul has shown us that we should be quick to judge others… that this is God’s job. It’s okay to judge in that we discern between right and wrong. Also that there is a Day of Judgment coming, for the un-believer… the White Throne Judgment, for the believer… the […]

Lesson 6 – Romans Chapter 2:1-7

Rom. 2:1 “Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.” “You may think you can condemn such people, but you are just as bad, and you have no excuse! When you say they are wicked […]

Lesson 5 – Romans Chapter 1:22-32

“And their foolish hearts were darkened” (cont’d) Isaiah 32:6 “For the foolish person will speak foolishness, and his heart will work iniquity: To practice ungodliness, to utter error against the LORD, to keep the hungry unsatisfied, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.” Ecclesiastes 10:2 “A wise man’s heart directs him […]

Lesson 2 – Romans Chapter 1:5-13

Rom. 1:5-7 “Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name, among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ; To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the […]

Lesson 1 – Romans Chapter 1:1-4

The Book of Romans in my opinion, is perhaps the flagship of the apostle Paul’s writings. When I meet a new believer I will usually advise them in reading the bible, to start in the book of Romans or the gospel of John. II Tim. 3:16 “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and […]
