Romans 1-4: Justified
When Paul brought the gospel to Thessalonica he made a lot of enemies. His opponents said to the town council, ‘These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also’ (Acts 17:6 ESV). There’s actually a lot of truth in that accusation.
Paul’s message, the gospel of God, does turn the world upside down. In the gospel ungodly people who are under God’s judgement are declared right before God by faith in Jesus Christ. That news changes individuals, families, whole communities.
Romans explains that gospel, and no other part of the bible contains such a thorough explanation of the ‘the gospel of God’ (Rom 1:1).
