Building on a Firm Foundation
Series: Romans
As the Apostle Paul writes this letter to the churches in Rome, he repeatedly reveals that his primary focus is the Gospel – the Good News regarding Jesus Christ. The first 7 verses of Romans serve as the addresses on Paul’s envelope. But, he also lays out the basics of what he will spend the rest of the letter detailing.
The 3 primary movements of our passage begin with the Messenger & His Message, followed by the Mission & the Mission Field, and throughout it all, Paul makes sure the focus is on the Master.
God’s Good News is that we can receive grace and peace as we put our faith in Jesus Christ.
Romans 1:1-7
