Grace and Peace

This Sunday we will begin a teaching series on Paul’s letter to the Romans. Martin Luther called Romans “the most important piece in the New Testament” and said of it “It is impossible to read or to meditate on this letter too much or too well. The more one deals with it, the more precious it becomes and the better it tastes.”
This week we are going to look at the first seven verses which contain the introduction and greeting. But unlike a normal letter Paul’s letter to the Romans begins with some profound truths: about himself, his mission, about Jesus, about the Romans, and about us.
Most of all Paul’s greeting announces the new order of things where we are free from sin, corruption, and death. Join us this Sunday May 20, 2012 at 11:00AM at the Rock Presbyterian Church 6910-B Miramar Rd., San Diego, CA 92121 as we consider how Jesus has brought about “‘the generous overflow of the love of God the Father’ and ‘a state of wholeness with God with no deficiency.’”
