ROMANS 7:7-25 Paul’s letter to the Romans is easily recognized to be the most influential letter ever written in human history. It has had a significant impact on religious authorities, governmental authorities, and philosophies on God, human nature and behavior, and societal order. There is no denying the great theological importance that the Epistle to the Romans has had throughout Christian history, especially since the Protestant Reformation. In much of Romans examination, only up until the past few decades, Paul’s letter has principally been viewed as a theological treatise and not a letter written to a group of ancient Jewish and non-Jewish Messiah followers in the city of Rome. While there are many useful perspectives and insights offered by those past voices who have considered Romans—the setting of Romans is quite important and most relevant for the broad, contemporary Messianic movement. Much of the ancient setting of Romans, with the Jewish Believers getting reintegrated into mixed fellowships of Believers, parallels much of what we see in our own faith community. This Messianic study on Romans is definitely one produced for the 2010s, and for the challenges that the Messianic movement presently faces! check it out via the link below (first comment):
