The Apostle Paul is a larger-than-life figure within the Christian world, and his letter to the believers in Rome is considered his most important writing. Powerful and passionate, The Law and the Spirit of Life offers a fresh and broadly researched perspective on the book of Romans. More than just a study of the biblical text, this enlightening book engages in a study of the studies on Paul and this epistle. Bill Blackmon takes readers on a geographical, historical, and theological journey, answering questions such as: Why did God direct Paul to write this letter? What was its primary purpose? As the author definitively establishes, Romans embodies the core of the Christian faith, and without it, the Church would not exist as it does today. Inviting a myriad of voices to contribute their insights to the study, Dr. Blackmon crafts a valuable resource for all those—clergy or laity, believer or not—who want to deepen their understanding of God and His salvation offered to humanity.
