Christianity 101: Paul’s Letter to the Romans
March 9, 2008 
By: John Bruce

"The Most Powerful Message in the World"

Romans 1:1-17

A. A Better King.

       “Paul, a bond-servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,”  (Romans 1:1)

B.    A Better Story.

“…which He promised beforehand through His prophets in the holy Scriptures, concerning His Son, who was born of a descendant of David according to the flesh, who was declared the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the dead, according to the Spirit of holiness, Jesus Christ our Lord,”  (Romans 1:2-4)

C.    A Better Solution.

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "But the righteous man shall live by faith." (Romans 1:16-17)
