1. Introduction to Romans | Romans 1:1-7
Without question, the book of Romans is one of the most powerful and
influential books ever written.
It has prompted some of the greatest revivals in the history of the church.
It has also influenced some of the most significant conversions in church history.
St. Augustine, the most brilliant theologian of the late Middle Ages, came to
conviction of sin & salvation after reading chapter 13 of Romans.
Martin Luther recovered the doctrine of salvation by faith from his study of
Romans 1:17 and went on to lead the Protestant Reformation.
In his preface to the Roman letter, he wrote:
"This Epistle is the chief book of the New Testament, the purest
gospel. It deserves not only to be known word for word by every
Christian, but to be the subject of his meditation day by day, the
daily bread of his soul."
His contemporary, John Calvin, wrote:
"When anyone understands this Epistle, he has a passage opened to
him to the understanding of the whole Scriptures."
Several centuries later, while listening to the reading of Luther's preface to the
book of Romans, John Wesley was converted and became the catalyst of
the great evangelical revivals of the 18th century.
Romans has been called:
"The greatest and richest of all the apostolic works." - Meyer
"The cathedral of the Christian faith." - Godet
"The most profound of all the epistles, and perhaps the most
important book in the Bible …’ - Gordon H. Clark
