    Our study through the book of Romans 1 shows us a God who loves humans, but must reveal His wrath on anything that is not like Him. It is one of the best chapters in the Bible to clearly understand God’s righteous character, and our fallibility.

    Why is there evil in the world? How can a loving God condemn anyone to hell? Does God condemn me when I do wrong? How can I be a Christian and yet still sin? How do law and faith work together? Where do I find help and hope? What happens to the Jews after they rejected Jesus? How am I supposed to ...read more

    Our relationship with God is a relationship that finds its beginning and its end totally in HIM. Our verses today, Romans 1:16 & 17, explain in very simple terms how we need to let God maintain our relationship with Him, and with others as well.
