Description
The Epistle to the Romans is both a highly personal letter and an authoritative theological treatise, inspired by the Holy Spirit and penned by the Apostle Paul. It contains clear and simple truths which serve to comfort the most childlike believer, as well as intricate examinations of the purposes and mission of God.
Paul himself, having been changed from the persecutor Saul into an ambassador for Christ, is evidence of the saving and transforming power of God that he expounds in his letter. He anticipates the questions of Christians examining their faith throughout the ages, and rebuts errors and heresies with which we still grapple today.
Sinclair Ferguson meditates on the grace and tenderness of God which Paul so plainly and boldly proclaims, and painstakingly unravels the most complex passages. His is a reliable and experienced voice guiding ordinary Christians to the very heights of New Testament theology.
Let’s Study Romans is suitable for individual or group use, and includes a Study Guide to aid readers in grasping and retaining the logical progression of Paul’s thought.
