Paul's Ministry to the Romans

From Corinth, Paul wrote this letter to an established church in Rome that he had never personally been to. This letter is the longest of Paul's letters written to a congregation that were predominantly Gentile.

Paul identified himself to them in three ways - as a slave of Christ, as having been called and sent by God, and as having been set apart for the ministry of the Gospel.

All who hear and believe the Gospel of the Lord Jesus enter into His service having the same position before the Lord.

Following the introduction, the letter breaks down into five parts - condemnation, justification, sanctification, explanation, exhortation, and then concludes with Paul's closing comments.
