Epistle to the Romans – W. E. Vine

Description

In the Epistle to the Romans the Apostle Paul vindicates the righteousness of God in His dealings with men, especially His righteousness as shown in the Gospel, in which is revealed, as the Apostle says in his introduction, “a righteousness of God by faith unto faith” (1:17). With this in view he sets forth the character and effects of the Gospel, showing the means God has adopted by which righteousness can be reckoned to men in spite of their sinful state, and further, by which His grace and mercy, now brought alike to Jew and Gentile individually, will yet be ministered to them nationally. The prominent teaching of the Epistle is that this plan of salvation is consistent with God’s own character and attributes.
