Welcome to the Study of the Book of Romans. We will be studying Romans inductively, using the chapter mapping process. The printables you will need are included in the study. We will do one chapter per week so that we have plenty of time to "map" through each chapter thoroughly. You may use any method you like, but chapter mapping is a very effective way of going through the inductive Bible study process and breaking it down into small steps for you. Be sure as you go through each lesson, that you check off completed on the lower right corner so you can track your course progress. Let's go!
This week's reading and study assignment is chapter one. Each week we will go through just one chapter. This is why using the chapter mapping workbook is the easiest guide. You can do as little or as much as you'd like to.
Just a side note: You can use any version of the Bible that you prefer, however, most of the extra information I share is from the Berean Standard Bible and from their website, Bible Hub.
Chapter Context
Having just concluded a list of terrible sins humanity indulges in as a result of rejecting God, Paul turns to religious people and says, ''This applies to you, too.'' Nobody can judge arrogantly, because we are all guilty. Even God's people the Jews will stand before Him in judgment based on their works. Having the law only matters if someone can keep the law. Paul asks his Jewish readers why they don't and shows that they must be Jewish and circumcised in their hearts for it to matter. In the following chapter, he will show that nobody can keep the law.
