Romans: The Righteousness Of God Revealed
Augustine wrote, “This book is beyond all doubt the most important letter ever written.” Martin Luther, the father of the Reformation, said: “It is purest Gospel. It is well worth a Christian’s while not only to memorize it word for word but also to occupy himself with it daily, as though it were the daily bread of the soul.” John Welsey, who founded the Methodist Church, was converted while listening to the introduction to Luther’s book on Romans, he testified: “I felt my heart strangely warmed. I felt I did trust in Christ, Christ alone for salvation; and an assurance was given me that He had taken away my sins, even mine, and saved me from the law of sin and death.”
The Epistle to the Romans is the longest letter that we have from the whole of the ancient world and, without doubt, the most influential.
