Introduction of This Book


Anyone who has sincerely faced the Law, as Paul did, is compelled to cry out in anguish, "O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?" (Romans 7:24). As descendants of Adam, we are fundamentally flawed sinners, utterly incapable of entering Heaven by our efforts.

Nevertheless, God the Father bestowed upon us His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, as the atonement for our sins. Jesus, the Son of God incarnate, assured our deliverance from condemnation through His baptism by John the Baptist, the representative of all humanity, thus "condemning sin in the flesh" (Romans 8:3).

"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death" (Romans 8:1-2).

Have you attained the status of a righteous individual, free from condemnation? If the answer is no, it is crucial to recognize that you remain subjected to the law of sin and death, having not embraced the law of the Spirit of life.

The law of the Spirit of life embodies the essence of the Original Gospel. In this authentic Gospel, the Righteousness of God was fulfilled by Jesus Christ, the Son of God, "who came by water and blood" (1 John 5:6). Believers in the Gospel of the water and the blood are endowed with God's Righteousness, securing salvation devoid of condemnation.

From Romans chapter 12 onwards, the Word speaks about the appropriate life of the born-again righteous. The righteous present themselves as "a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God" (Romans 12:1). Born-again saints deny their thoughts and righteousness, take up their cross, and live entirely for the proclamation of the Gospel.

Through two volumes of expository sermons on Romans, I hope all readers receive God's grace abundantly. Furthermore, I wish for deep fellowship in love among the righteous who have received the grace of salvation within the truth of the Gospel.
