This epistle of Paul the aspostle, is a great and distinct pointer to the eternal faithfulness of God; for it reveals the mannerism of God,with reference to His saving grace. If God can save, rescue , deliver, and also train and disciple Paul, then He can do it for whosoever craves and thirsts for His righteousness. It is really, a writing that also shows gratitudes to the person of Jesus Christ as the person that saved him- and sent him on this task of preaching the Gospe. Thus, Paul was not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation for those who believes, for Jew first and also for the Greek, for in it, the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, for it is written the just shall live, believe, and honour the Most High God through the God kind of faith- and that is only possible through Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Therefore, we are already justified, as Christians- however, there are terms and conditions ,in the Holy writ that we must put in place and honour, so that God can fulfill His part of the covenant. Thus, justification is only by faith- and that is highly significant. In other words, it is worthy of note( Romans 1;16,17) Hence,the things of the Holy Spirit are for whosoever believes.( John 3;16). Interestingly,God will not and does not impose Himself on any, and that is simply because He is a God of love. Therefore, what He says in the day of the Bible,is what He is saying to the Church today. The truth of this is that, this opening epistle, is such a great writing- therefore, to an extent it is meant to lay the foundation for the other. Also, like in all his writings, it reveals that grace and peace that comes from God through Jesus Christ are hidden on it. He of course did these, because of His dependency on the Holy Spirit. And hence, it reminds whosoever desires the things of God,and that also likes to be used for His glory to love and trust God because He is forever trustworthy. It also has warning against all forms of unrighteousness and that includes idolatary. It must be mentioned that Paul did a great job, in this Romans 1, even though it is full of substance meant for grown up Christian, yet someone who has just been born again,can read and learn from it, particularly, the plain truths of it and also with reflections upon reflections, the truths inherent in it would be revealed. And that is one of the beauties of the Holy Writ. It is infallible- and the immutability of the Divine God are there, punctuated with mercies, kindness, graces upon graces, and also peace like a river- however it is only for whosoever believes.Therefore there is the need to trust and honour the Holy Writ, for there is no other way to it but to chiefly trust and honour divine dictates.
