Description: The apostle Paul lived within a swirl of controversy. False Christians-Judaizers-dogged his every step, slandering his motives, denying his apostolic authority, and seeking to overthrow his Gospel teaching. In theEpistle to the Romans, he demonstrates the truth of His Gospel and thereby vindicatess his apostolic authority.
