Religion & Spirituality
The book of Romans does not explicitly mention the practice of apologetics, that is, the defense of the Christian faith. However, there are many portions of Romans that have a lot of relevance with apologetics today. This looks at chapters 1 through, where faith versus works is one of the central ideas. The concept of grace through faith divides orthodox Christianity from false spin-off groups and other world religions. Other issues in apologetics also surface, including evidence for the existence of God, the Messianic status of Jesus, homosexuality, and the problem of evil.
