Free Bible Study: Paul’s Epistle to the Romans
In his lifetime, Paul launched at least four missionary journeys into previously unreached countries (3 recorded in Acts), survived tremendous opposition and hardship, and wrote letters to instruct and encourage those who had become believers Imprisonment often resulted from Paul’s disagreement with the religious legalism of the Jews. The Book of Acts ends with Paul under house arrest in his own rented house in Rome (Acts 28:30, 31). Events surrounding the end of Paul’s life are uncertain. After a possible release and a later imprisonment in Rome, Paul may have been tried and executed for his continued proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ (see 2 Tim.), which he expressed in his letter to the church at Rome.v Use for daily Bible study

During the Welsh Revival of 1904–1905, two children were overheard giving their understanding of revival. One child asked the other, “Do you know what happened at Rhos? The second child answered, “No, I don’t, except that Sunday comes every day now.” The first child asked again, “Don’t you know?” The second child replied, “No, I don’t.” So the first said, “Why, Jesus Christ has come to live in Rhos now.” Revival has occurred when Jesus takes up residency in our community and every day feels like Sunday.
