Romans: The Bible Explained

Watch our Introduction video on the book of Romans, which outlines the book's main theme and how it is fulfilled in Jesus.
Romans is one of the most famous, quoted, and dearly loved books in the whole Bible. This may be because it contains some of the clearest and strong statements of the Gospel we have in Scripture. But other parts of Romans, and how it all fits together, can be difficult to follow. That is because there is a story behind the book of Romans. It is the story of the conflict which arose between Jews and Gentiles as they began integrating in synagogues and house churches throughout Rome, and how Jesus brings them together.

[@christopherleatherwood1670]

hey guys thank you I have been needing some wisdom and I just watched your proverbs video and now I'm gonna try to read a chapter each night before I fall asleep

[@coffee-talk-with-me]

Best. Choice. Ever. Made. I was an atheist in my teen years, but there'd always be a question that kept popping in my head from time to time, "what happens afterlife?" I have read books on science, religions, and fiction and non gave me a satisfying answer... Eventually, I turned to The Bible's Wisdom Books (Job, Proverbs & Ecclesiastes) I could relate so much to the inside of it... It spoke truth and nothing but the Truth, I Confessed, Baptised, and then renewed my Life in Christ Jesus, Amen. Now I not only strive for God's Wisdom but the Treasures of the Bible and all that it teaches. I seemed wisdom and now I seek the WHOLE of God's influence in my life. I encourage you to keep seeking brother, you'll never ever go wrong from here.

[@SpokenGospel]

Wow, thank you both for sharing! May God satisfy your desires and lead you to Himself and deeper wisdom.

[@PatrickKQ4HBD]

WOOOOOO!!!!! This is sooo powerful a presentation! I cried. You all really came together to illuminate the backstory and problems that led Paul to write this letter. And the casting of dark brown people opposite light brown people hits home really hard. Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting your talents shine for the glory of God! 🙏

[@debbied.wilbourn4087]

Couldn’t have said that better myself.

[@tootsietootsie2931]

[@dimelo2melo961]

Did you really crie over this?

[@lindaejimadu3996]

Romans was a difficult book for me to study. I always felt condemned like the gentiles mentioned. However I finally did an in depth bible study at church & it blew my mind. One of the best books in the bible & this presentation has brought everything said to life. Beautiful Awesome Spirit Breathed!

[@coffee-talk-with-me]

Bible App suggested this page to me and I must say, I LOVE your work and I can't wait for this project to premiere!

[@eldredthomas3748]

Finally!!! God bless you guys work

[@kirstencoker8610]

The letter to the Romans is...BREATHTAKING, and you guys just make it better! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ChefTim100]

Thank you for your work for all of us to use. I start a study today on Romans and this is great info to get started. Our last study was all of Acts. Ending with Paul on house arrest in Rome. I have already came to the conclusion of, If we will let God change us, like Paul. With our whole heart serve the Lord. Then we can do just as Paul did. Never wavier, never back dawn from what and who you know. The one true God..of Abraham and Jacob..

[@Wordsman]

Bruh, is there a better time for a message like the book of Romans? Seriously, God ordered the times so perfectly. A question was brought up, issues were revealed, and the answer was a soon following reminder of the truth of the Bible and of Christ. My goodness, do not stop David. Do. Not. Stop.

[@debbied.wilbourn4087]

Amen to that! Glory to The Most High!

[@nathandowner6007]

I loved every minute of this !!! I just found the channel not too long ago, but I'm so glad I did

[@vts2628]

Thank you so much. I am reading the book of Roman and it is so tough to understand Paul in this book. Your great work helps me to understand the context better.

[@andrewcarpenter5638]

MIND BLOWN thank you for being faithful to the word of God and putting out these videos. They help me and my faith so much!! Blessings

[@songsgardensbyjenniferlynn3242]

Your intros are SO well done! I will be sharing these and using them for bible studies. Thank you!

[@SpokenGospel]

Please do! So glad you're finding them to be helpful 😊

[@hiud11]

This was amazing, by the end I was praising and thanking Jesus! God is so good!

[@jeffreybomba]

It is refreshing to see Romans explained as it is written rather than how it must be to fit a system. Starting in chapter two Paul addresses I/YOU in the present tense, but most interpretations inositol he is speaking past the church to the world or the audiences previous life before being saved. To see the conflict and unification of Jew and gentile that is the center of the book. Well done.

[@saucyminx8697]

🙏🏻🙏🏻PS, IM GONNA WATCH YOUR WHOLE CHANNEL UNTIL I UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE, TO LAZY TO READ💕🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗🤭🤭🤭🤭

[@ContendformyFaith]

Watching videos doesn't supplement reading/studying the bible. Laziness is a sin and videos can be misleading (Not saying this one is). The Bereans(Acts 17)didn't watch videos they searched the scriptures for truth

[@lissetteherrera2117]

Amazing!!! I love your videos. And its so understandable too. Thank you and God bless you all.

[@RedeemedSon144]

great video! The Christian walk is a tension, and I guess it is that tension that either breaks us or it pushes us to trust God through it - and become closer to Him. Great music that moves!

[@shivshankarrao3100]

This is awesome, wonderful coverage of the book of Romans in short.

[@christinapriyadarshini1141]

Really amazing explanation of Romans... May God bless the spoken gospel team more and more.

[@NB-uh5fy]

This was so beautiful I’m almost done reading the book of Romans 🙏🏿❤️❤️

[@swordsaintisshin6806]

Amazing video. It cleared up a lot of confusion I had about what Paul meant by “being released from the Law” in Romans 7:6. God bless you.

[@rechelefields3224]

So good and easy to understand! Thank you!

[@SpokenGospel]

Glad it was helpful!

[@eldredthomas3748]

Really great to see that there were so may Jewish people who looked African back in the day. Your really do learn so much these days.

[@mariembuenaventura1278]

Thank you guys! Can we have copy of the commentary or sources you use aside from the Book of Romans?

[@SpokenGospel]

Yes, of course! You can find our recommended resources for Romans at the bottom of this page: spokengospel.com/books/romans

[@decock45]

So this basically means be accepting of all people of all nations?

[@Pravin_Yeshua_BTC]

I am not ashamed of the gospel ♥️

[@isabelbislew897]

Amen

[@helpme100]

This isn't talked enough!! This chapter of the bible tells you enough

[@tasseyko7654]

Wow! That was awesome!! Thank you. I'm trying to understand things and that very much helped. And it pleased my soul to see the representation of people of color in it also! Some will never understand how that helps to feel included

[@sarahbliiss7091]

[@PatrickKQ4HBD]

Me too! Me too!

[@yoelbenyisrael9866]

Shabbat Shalom! Negroes who experienced the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade, are the true Biblical Israelites. Deuteronomy 28:15-68. Love the subtle way you all convey this truth.

[@hellodia8038]

Melanated people “ not negros” dont be disrespectful

[@nfldee]

I love how they show who the TRUE JEWS ARE 💪🏿 this is great tho ✨

[@truthmachine1192]

There was a reason why Christ himself left no theology. He was not about theology.

[@sarahellis8375]

the scripture says he came to save his people from their sins not the world

[@Kenayi22]

Why do so many believers confess the Holy Spirit as the author of the scriptures but often quote individual writers. When we quote Paul instead of simply quoting the Bible or the Holy Spirit, we unintentionally open the word of God to criticism. People who ordinarily won't dare to criticize the written word of God, now do so by simply isolating writers like Apostle Paul for criticism. We have not only humanized the scriptures but we've also given the unbelieving world a stick with which they can poke holes in the divine word. For some, this is just a bad habit. I still struggle with it but I'm learning to quickly catch my tongue whenever it's spilling.

[@sarahellis8375]

I think if you read Romans 9 starting at verse 24 and down you will see that the gentiles he is talking about is the house of Israel that God divorced back in the book of Hosea chapter 1 not heathen gentiles

[@KJVPACKERS]

With all due respect brother or sister, I think it's best if you read Romans 16:22 I Tertius, Who wrote this epistle, salute you in the Lord. Question? Who wrote The book of Romans.

[@zoezionnelson2005]

Paul was the audio and Tertius was the scribe and then sister Pheobe delivered the letter because she was a deacon.

[@indominatus]

some people forget Abram started as a gentile :)

[@mitchellc4]

The gospel is the gospel of the kingdom! Jesus is going to return and set up the kingdom of God ON THE EARTH! God’s government ON THE EARTH! The Messiah died for his people! God resurrected the Messiah! The Messiah will resurrect his people at his coming! The destiny of the Messiah and his people is to be ON THE EARTH! The renewed restored earth! God also dwelling with them! Rev 21 Matt 24 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. Jesus said the Father is the only true God! John 17 3 And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.

[@NorthernGate777]

The apostle Paul is mocked every day. This is how he is in chains.

[@Over-for-now]

The music is SO SO SO annoying.

[@hollister9661]

They just need to turn it way way down😅

[@sarahellis8375]

And how the Hebrews became Greeks is through hellenization the wicked Israelites acts for licenses to become Greeks you can read that in the book of Maccabees

[@zackdiehl81]

Hey, I just want to let you know that the background music is extremely distracting and overpowering.

[@falseprophetsthorn8723]

🔥Romans was written by Paul the false apostle. You're not saved by grace through faith. Jesus taught us _" ....... if you want to enter life, obey the commandments."_ (Matthew 19:17) 🔥Paul taught that the law was done away with; _The law reveals sin but cannot fix it._ (Romans 3:20) _If the law worked then faith would be irrelevant._ (Romans 4:14) _The law brings wrath upon those who follow it._ (Romans 4:15) _Christians are not under the law._ (Romans 6:14) 🔥Jesus taught a completely different message; _"For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished."_ (Matt 5:18)

[@sarahellis8375]

This is absolutely not true the scripture says he showth of his word unto Jacob he have not done so with any other Nation

[@willwill7736]

Ha ha ha yes I C

[@Luke10.25-gospelJesustaught]

This is full of lies and does not represent the Holy Spirit because He doesn't lie. Nor does He say to cover up sin but rather expose sin. Joseph would not have told the reader to cover the sins of an adulterer. Nor does he say cover up the sins of a thief when he steals. This a devils book

[@Lakishia]

Amazing!!!!!
