THE POWER OF THE GOSPEL
Romans 1:8-17—KJV
The epistle to the Romans stands at the pinnacle of the apostle Paul’s writings. Romans has been called one of the greatest Christian writings of all time because it spells out in clear language God’s plan to bring salvation through Jesus Christ to Jews and Gentiles. Scholars consistently agree that the author of this theological gem is Saul of Tarsus, better known as Paul. When and why did Paul write Romans? There is no consensus regarding exact dates, but most scholars accept that the epistle was written sometime between 52 and 58 C.E. Although no one can pinpoint the exact year of its writing, it is certain that the letter of Paul to the Romans was written from Corinth, toward the end of his third missionary journey (see Acts 18:23–21:8).
