Free Bible Study: Paul’s Epistle to the Romans
The major theme of Romans is that of righteousness received as a gift from God, not achieved by works of the Law (Rom. 1:16, 17). Salvation comes by grace through faith (Rom. 3:21–31). Other themes include mankind’s rejection of God’s revelation, death to sin and life in Christ by the Holy Spirit’s power, Christian freedom, God’s sovereignty, God’s plan of salvation as encompassing Gentiles as well as Jews, obedience to Christ involving sacrificial commitment, and practical Christian living.

Have you ever wished you hadn’t clicked “send” on a piece of email? Disappearing Inc., has developed a process that may change the way email is handled in the future. This start-up company has devised a method for putting time bombs in email so the message will be readable only as long as the sender desires. This system, which was expected to hit the market in 2000, encrypts every message with an electronic key. The sender utilizes that key to make the message last anywhere from just a few seconds to many years. At the encoded time, the message simply becomes unreadable. In the near future our most widely used source of written communication may become timesensitive, but the certainty of God’s Word will last forever (Isaiah 40:8).
