Download or read book A Commentary on ROMANS written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would Paul write his longest letter to a church he had not founded or even visited? This expositor believes the answer lies in its history, culminating in a major crisis which could have split the whole church into two denominations. Originally Jewish (Acts 2:10–11), it soon attracted Gentiles, who were left on their own when Claudius evicted all Jews (Acts 18:2). In their absence a teaching emerged which we now know as 'Replacement Theology', believing that God has rejected the Jews and turned instead to the Christian Church as his chosen people on earth, a view which, alas, is now widespread. Paul's carefully argued answer shows how much believing Jews and Gentiles have in common, both in sin and salvation, in flesh and Spirit. This approach treats 'Chapters 9–11', (divisions never in his letter) as an integral part of his appeal, reaching its climax in a threefold challenge to the arrogance of the Gentile believers in Rome (11:18, 20, 25) in not warmly welcoming back into the fellowship the Jews who were allowed to return under Nero. This 'key' unlocks the whole epistle, from the solemn warning that believers can lose their salvation (11:20–22) to the careful instruction on how to live with 'disputable matters' such as diet and days (14:1 – 15:13); and ends with so many commands to greet each other with 'a holy kiss' (16:16). However, as with most of Paul's practical counsel, all this is firmly rooted in sound 'gospel' theology.

Download or read book The Letter of Paul to the Romans written by M. C. Paul and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The epistle of Romans is strikingly different from Pauls other writings and also from the writings of the other disciplesparticularly in the aspects of the beginning and of progress of Christian life. Paul wrote about the work of God by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. If the Holy Spirit inspired only Paul and nobody else, it is imperative that every doctrine on Christian life should be examined and understood with reference to this. From Pauls presentation, beginning from chapter 12, we can infer that God the Father resurrected the Law as Christian ethics after He resurrected His Son. Now, believers can see the Law no longer as that which condemns them but as Christian ethics present in them, which others can see and use to glorify God. This becomes possible when the believer opts for the Law of Spirit of his or her life in Christ Jesus and leans on the Holy Spirit. The deposit of Christs righteousnessChristian ethicsin the believer manifests itself as right relationships with his or her fellow believers, other people around, and figures of authority. The book presents Pauls answer to helping those who struggle with morality or with the Law for salvation and also to helping those who struggle with the Law for pleasing God as believers. The reader is advised to keep the text of Romans open for accompanying study.
Download or read book Paul s Letter to the Romans written by Ben Witherington and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004-03-02 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Paul’s letter to the Romans is the most studied and commented-on document from the biblical period, the major exegetical books on Romans from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries have been overwhelmingly shaped by the Reformed tradition. Through a careful survey of work on Romans by both ancient Church Fathers and modern exegetical scholars, Ben Witherington III here argues that the interpretation of Romans since the Reformation has been far too indebted to — and at key points led astray by — Augustinian readings of the text as filtered through Luther, Calvin, and others. In this first full-scale socio-rhetorical commentary on Romans, Witherington gleans fresh insights from reading the text of Paul’s epistle in light of early Jewish theology, the historical situation of Rome in the middle of the first century A.D., and Paul’s own rhetorical concerns. Giving serious consideration to the social and rhetorical background of Romans allows readers to hear Paul on his own terms, not just through the various voices of his later interpreters. Witherington’s groundbreaking work also features a new, clear translation of the Greek text, and each section of the commentary ends with a brief discussion titled “Bridging the Horizons,” which suggests how the ancient text of Romans may speak to us today.

Download or read book Paul s Letter to the Romans written by Peter Stuhlmacher and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Peter Stuhlmacher stresses the Old Testament and postbiblical Jewish traditions as the primary backdrop to Paul's thought, as these traditions were known by Paul himself or mediated to him through Jesus and the early church. The themes of the righteousness of God and the corresponding justification of both Jews and Gentiles are viewed as the center of Romans. Finally, Stuhlmacher seeks to place the apostle's theology within its historical context. He overcomes the false dichotomy that has often characterized the study of Romans, mediating between the view that it is a general theological treatise that functions as Paul's last testament to his Christian faith, on the one hand, and the view that it is one particular and occasion-bound expression of Paul's thinking.

Download or read book Paul s Letter to the Romans written by William Flewelling and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible studies I chose to do in answer to the request of my first congregation out of seminary sought to present a serious, somewhat-scholarly approach to the interested among my parishioners. In every case, I took a book to study, assuming that it was written to be read from the beginning, and to make sense to the reader in that format. I was most interested in finding what the author or compiler or editor, as the case may be, sought to convey. I have found the studies of value to me personally and professionally and felt that they were generally well received as I led them. Revisiting these studies now finds them again of fresh value to me. I hope they prove to be so for you as well.
