Romans

As scholar and sage, filled with knowledge and zeal, Paul revolutionized Messianic Judaism. What had been limited primarily to Jews, Paul opened up to the masses of uneducated and morally repulsive Gentiles. How could he Scripturally justify profaning God’s established religion in this way? How could he bring two completely opposite groups together? He did it by explaining the Hebrew Scriptures so that both groups could understand their role in it.

This Bible study goes back to Paul’s source text, the Hebrew Scriptures, to explain his letter to the Roman Congregation. By placing ourselves in the Roman world, without a New Testament, where new religions are outlawed, and where Judaism is the only religion of the One True God, we rediscover a world we’ve long misunderstood.
