Two churches that the apostle Paul wrote letters to were not started by him. Colossians and Romans. These books appear to be written to promote unity within the church. More than once, Paul wrote that there is no difference between Jew and Gentile. All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. We gain much of our doctrine from these letters. I hope this work will help others to understand the truths that God has given us in Romans. These are comments of a layman and not a Biblical scholar with a learned degree. I like to keep things simple. I hope God will be glorified by these words and pleased with my efforts to promote His truths.
