I. Introduction............................. 1:1-17
Rom 1:1
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,Rom 1:2
(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)Rom 1:3
Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;Rom 1:4
And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:Rom 1:5
By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:Rom 1:6
Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:Rom 1:7
To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.Rom 1:8
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.Rom 1:9
For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;Rom 1:10
Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.Rom 1:11
For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;Rom 1:12
That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.Rom 1:13
Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.Rom 1:14
I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.Rom 1:15
So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.Rom 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.Rom 1:17
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
