A look at the salutation of Apostle Paul, reveals some things that are worthy of acceptance- and so also are the contents of this exemplary book, the book of Romans. It is on record that initially Paul was a persecutor of the early Church, and then he had a remarkable encounter with the LORD Jesus Christ, on the way to Damascus, and upon which he was blinded and then got his sight back when he did what the LORD instructed him. In the process of these happenings, Paul, mysteriously, perhaps because of his level of knowledge and understanding of Judaism, must have been very surprised about that encounter that He had with Jesus Christ, and then he perhaps, as led through the Holy Spirit, went into hidden, as to really search out and decode the counsel of the LORD, in a way he must have it a bit difficult as to, how Jesus of Nazareth can be the Christ of God. And then afterwards, in solitude, while in Arabia, after all manner of encounters with the Word of God and with the Holy Spirit, he then went back to Jerusalem, and upon getting there, they did not want to accept him. But when they heard about his testimony and the degree of revelations that were proceeding from Him, they prayerfully as led, got him into their fellowship. In the process of that, the Holy Spirit made a demand on that meeting of the early disciples, that Paul and Barnabas be separated unto the Holy Spirit for the assignment that He has for them. The import of this rests powerfully and greatly on the unity of the faith. Are there not many in the Body of Christ who are into Phds in this or that, and yet there are callings and election for them! And until they truly separate themselves, to get into great fellowship with the Holy Spirit and with God's Word, such encounters they are meant to contact won't happen. This first chapter of the book of Romans, is a reflection of the truthfulness of the Gospel, and hence guides the saints of different ages and generation towards recognizing that the mannerism of pleasing the LORD is only through the weaponry of faith ( Romans 1:16.17). And that is because, the Gospel of Christ is both the wisdom and also the power of God, unto salvation for the Jew first; where Christ came from, and also for the Greek; and that refers to the entire world. For, in it, the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith for it is written; the just shall live by faith. The book of Romans, is such a powerful book that demands great and concentrated attention. The stuff calls for discernment, they are such that demands ministry gifts in the Church, with real reliance on the Holy Spirit, the Eternal Spirit, to dispense and administer in true righteousness.
