Romans, Volume 1: Justified is free on Kindle for four more days — and today is a good day to talk about where Paul actually starts.
He doesn’t open with comfort. He opens with a courtroom. In Romans 1–3, Paul closes every mouth and levels every excuse until Jew and Gentile alike stand guilty before a holy God. It feels heavy — and it’s meant to. The gospel gets its power from the diagnosis: you cannot be amazed by grace until you have felt the honest weight of the charge against you.
That is the ground this volume walks, verse by verse, so that the good news which follows lands with its full force.
