Romans 1-7 Truth for Today Commentary

ROMANS 1-7 This inspired epistle to the Roman Christians explains that salvation comes neither by obedience to the law of Moses nor by personal merit or goodness. Paul explained that anyone can be saved--but only by the grace of God as it is poured out on those who obey Him and live by faith. This message, so essential for people today, is carefully examined by David Roper and presented using an approach that makes it easy to understand and to share with others. "David Roper has written an exellent commentary on Romans for the Truth for Today series. He has an unusual talent for addressing difficult interpretative questions in a way that the non-specialist can understand. Roper's volumes on Romans offer valuable insights into the heart and mind of Paul." Duane Warden, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus Harding University TRUTH FOR TODAY COMMENTARY"An easy-to-read commentary that applies the truth of the Scriptures to everyone's life." The Truth for Today Commentary series is being written in an effort to complete a commentary on every book in the Bible. This series is being written by Bible professors and preachers of the churches of Christ, congregations dedicated to being the church that Jesus built. Using the NASB 1995 updated edition, each volume provides remarks on virtually every verse, and each chapter ends with an application section which offers suggestions for developing sermons and Bible classes.
