The Bible, King James Version, Book 45: Romans
Paul's letter to the Romans is perhaps the most consequential book ever written outside of the Hebrew scriptures themselves. In fourteen propulsive chapters, the Apostle Paul works through the great theological problem that haunted his conversion: how can sinful humanity stand righteous before a holy God? The answer he arrives at - justification by faith apart from works of the law - would reshape Christianity forever and spark a reformation. But Romans is not merely abstract theology. It pulses with pastoral urgency, celebrating the unlikely community of Jews and Gentiles, slaves and free, bound together by nothing but grace. The letter reaches soaring heights in chapter 8, where nothing in creation can separate believers from God's love, and crashes into challenging territory when Paul wrestles honestly with Israel's fate. This is a letter that demands to be argued with, a theological masterpiece that refuses to let readers off the hook.

“If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.””

“...if you can get your freedom, get it. The person who was a slave when God called him is now the Lord’s freeman. In the same way, the person who was a freeman when God called him is now Christ’s slave. Christ paid a price for you; don’t be slaves of men.’- 1 Corinthians 7:22, 23””

“What if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yes, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man) God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world? For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner? And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.””

“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ””
