Tonight, Called Men’s Group is finishing up our Bible study of the Book of Romans. A letter from the apostle Paul to the Roman churches. Paul’s letter to the Roman churches focuses on the doctrine of salvation, which is given to believers through Jesus Christ. Paul’s purpose in writing the letter was to share spiritual strength and provide encouragement to the believers in Rome. Now Paul’s letter shares spiritual strength and gives encouragement to us all.
