This Letter was written evidently at a time when the Christians throughout Asia Minor were suffering from false and malicious charges and threatened with persecution.

The very person who wrote John 3:16, "whosoever believeth in him should not perish" is the very same person who reveals in this letter what believing really involves. Most magazine articles and newspaper columns proceed from point A to point B to point C to conclusion D. Our way of things, of reasoning from premises to conclusions, had come down to us from the ancient Greeks. It is typically Western in approach. As we read the Holy Scriptures, most of us tend to assume the writer will take this approach. Most of the holy writers came out of an Eastern, specifically Jewish, culture. Their reasoning was often different than what we are used to. In 1 john, the apostle weaves doctrine and practice together. As a result, we see the intricate connections between "believing right" and "doing right." Despite what false teachers have done, John is not creating new doctrine. Everything he writes to them in this letter is, or should be, familiar. It is the same truth they have always heard from him.

Romans is considered the greatest exposition of the Christian doctrine of salvation found anywhere in the world today. In preparation of this work I have personally consulted around 27 translations for each verse. Over 675 scholars and over 100 years of translation work has been drawn upon. Seventeen study aids have been consulted (including lexicons, commentaries and Bible study notes) in preparation of the "additional information" to be drawn upon. This study may be used in Bible Colleges or with the youngest of Christians. The only commitment needed is that the Scriptures themselves must be your absolute guide and rule of faith.
