Paul and His Letter to the Romans: Part Two (Romans 6-11)




Paul and His Letter to the Romans: Part Two (Romans 6-11)

This course is Part Two of a three-part course covering the whole of Paul and His Letter to the Romans. This course, Romans: Part Two, is designed to take around fifteen weeks to complete and continues the study of the Epistle with an in depth exegesis of Romans 6:1-11:36.  This section of the letter builds on and develops previous elements outlined in Part One, and emphasizes that Romans as a whole is a letter about God.

In this section you will explore questions such as:

  • If God loves us so much and freely extends his grace, then why not live like we want? Why not continue in sin that his grace may abound?

  • Is Romans 7 really giving a picture of the struggle of the Christian life?

  • What argument is Paul making and how does he support the idea that there is 'no condemnation' for those in the Messiah Jesus?

  • How does the dense and often difficult section of Romans 9-11 emerge from what Paul has been talking about in Romans 1-8? What can we say about the promises God made to his people long ago who do not seem to have noticed?

The textbook is Prof. Wright's commentary on Romans in the Paul for Everyone series published by John Knox Press in the U.S. and SPCK in the UK.
