This video is the second in a series of teachings about the apostle Paul's letter to the Romans. In this episode, "Grasping the Context of Paul's Monumental Letter to the Romans," we conclude our study concerning the background and context of Romans and prepare to embark on a journey into the text itself. Words without context have no meaning and without considering Romans within the apostle Paul's context we miss the point of Romans altogether. #bible #theology #Romans

This video kicks off our journey into the Book of Romans. In Romans 1:1-2, Paul tells us a lot about himself. For example, "Paul a slave of Christ Jesus." At first glance, this might seem offensive to our modern ears, but what does it mean for Paul and his first audience? Well, as we dig into Paul's letter we will discover that Paul uses plenty of metaphors to convey deep theological principles. Slave language is no exception when Paul discusses the problem of sin and humanity's bondage to it.

Welcome to the Paradidomi Channel! In this video, we continue studying the book of Romans by surveying and discussing 1:1-7. This passage is the prescript of Paul's letter, where he introduces himself to the Roman Christians, and then (after a lot of deep theological content) he greets his audience. In addition, because the gospel is the major theme in Paul's letter, it might be wise for us to be clear about what exactly Paul means when he says he has been "set aside for the gospel of God." So, we'll answer the question, "What is the Gospel?"

In this video, we further explore the introduction of Paul's letter to the Romans. A key point that stands out in the 1:8-15 passage is Paul's eagerness to preach the gospel in Rome. Therefore, the main themes we will discuss are eagerness, faith, and the unconditional will of God.

Welcome to the Paradidomi Channel and another episode of, "Ask That Guy!" In this video, we explore a question posed by a subscriber: "What is Sin?" I will argue that sin is less about breaking rules and more about breaking a relationship with God.

In this video, we examine the thesis statement found at the end of the introduction to Paul's Letter to the Romans. In this statement, Paul presents his argument for why he worships a crucified Messiah and explains how the gospel serves as the means by which a Holy, Just, and loving God saves people. Furthermore, the gospel reveals God's righteousness, which we can only experience through faith in what God has accomplished through Jesus of Nazareth.

Hey there! This video, titled "What Is The Righteousness of God?", serves as a supplement and elaboration on the content from the previous video, "God's Righteousness Revealed In A Crucified Messiah." We are all guilty before God and in need of salvation. Fortunately, in addition to being holy and just, God is also merciful, allowing us to experience His righteousness through faith. So, what exactly is God's righteousness, you may wonder? Press play to find out!

This video provides a comprehensive analysis of Romans 1:18-32. It examines some of today's hot-button topics like God's wrath, homosexuality, while exploring the apostle Paul's argument that those who reject God are prone to distorted thinking, darkened hearts, which lead to unrighteous and ungodly behavior. Regardless of our views on Paul's perspective of the human condition, we must acknowledge that his statements in Romans 1:18-32 are clear and unambiguous.
