Romans 11-13 - Herbert W Armstrong - June 27, 1980

Herbert W Armstrong

Well now, we've been going through the book of Romans and we're up now to one of the favorite chapters of mine, the eleventh chapter. I was just making a brief little outline of Romans up-to-date from the beginning. In chapter one Paul addresses his letter to all that are in Rome. Now remember he wrote this letter before he had even been there and he's writing it too, of course, to those in the church. And some of them had been Romans and were Gentiles, but also several of them were Jews (converted Jews) and he is addressing both. Now in chapter one he addresses himself to the Gentiles who were going along with the Greeks at that time and with the intellectuals, who considered that they were the salt of the earth, and they were superior because they had great intellect and they were going into great knowledge. It is just like today, they go into great physical knowledge. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
