“Question & Answer”

Question:
To whom is this Letter of Paul’s addressed too?
Answer:
Paul’s letter to the Romans is the sixth book of the New Testament and the longest and doctrinally most significant of his writings. It was composed at Corinth in about 57 CE and addressed to the Christian church at Rome, which Paul had not visited yet. The letter expounds the gospel of Jesus Christ as the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes and emphasizes the themes of grace, justification, and the obedience of faith. The letter has been influential in the history of Christianity and has shaped the thought of many prominent theologians and leaders. However, it also differs from other Pauline letters in that Paul did not claim apostolic authority over the Roman congregation and respected their prior evangelization.
