28. Romans 15:14-33
Chris Rogers, assistant pastor of Discovery Baptist Church, unfolds Paul's explanation of his mission to preach the gospel to the Gentiles in Romans 15:14-33. From our modern-day vantage point, it is easy to overlook how controversial it was for the early church to welcome Gentiles into the people of God. In this passage Paul boldly and winsomely reaffirms that God has accepted the Gentiles through the gospel. In fact, Paul's very mission is to proclaim the gospel to the Gentiles, so that those who once were outsiders might become insiders.
