This is day 323 of our journey.
Paul's letter to the Romans was written before Paul had the opportunity to visit Rome. In the letter, Paul lays out the Gospel of Jesus Christ in its fullness. He begins his letter by making it clear that all people, whether Jews or Gentiles, are equal in the way we approach God. Those who are circumcised under the law are no better than those who are not.

Romans 3:9
What then? Are we better off? Certainly not, for we have already charged that Jews and Greeks alike are all under sin,
All Scriptures are from the NET.
