162: Paul to the Romans (NT Gospel Doctrine Lesson 36)

“Beloved of God, Called to Be Saints”

 

In his most carefully crafted letter, Paul lays out his gospel message, focusing on topics such as the role of the Law, both Jewish and moral, the struggle between desires of flesh and spirit, and the fate of Israel. You be the judge of how well he explains himself!
