The Holy Bible - Romans

The Holy Bible is a collection of books. So I have split them up. I will read it in 1 year, every day ~15 minutes of reading.

Why read it?

The Book of Romans is a letter from Paul to the church in Rome, written around 57 AD. It explains the gospel clearly: all have sinned, salvation comes by faith alone, and God’s grace changes lives. Romans covers God’s plan for Jews and Gentiles, holy living, and future hope.

You will find deep teaching on righteousness, freedom from sin, and God’s love. This book suits anyone who wants a strong grasp of Christian belief.

Favourite quote

In Romans 8:38-39, Paul writes:

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

These words assure us that nothing can cut us off from God’s love. They bring comfort in every trial.

What I Loved

Romans 5:8 hits me hard: “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” While we were still enemies, Jesus died for us. This truth of grace, not earned, but given, melts my heart and drives me to worship.

Key Takeaway

Romans teaches that we are saved by faith in Jesus, not works. God’s righteousness is a gift received through trust (Romans 3:23-24). The letter calls us to offer our lives to God, love others, and live in the Spirit. It reminds us that God’s plan includes all who believe, and His love secures us forever.
