From the La Vista church of Christ


by Sean P. Cavender
The book of Romans is Paul's defense of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Throughout the epistle, Paul details man's sin, man's need for justification, the conditions for justification, the effects of God's grace, and the assurances of the child of God. He makes several statements of his dedication to the preaching this gospel in the opening chapter:
"For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son..." (Romans 1:9) I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise. So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek" (Romans 1:14-16).
​
Paul's dedication to the gospel was not by accident, nor was he easily removed from his task of preaching. He was convicted of the gospel, the power of God that was contained in it, and the salvation which it promised. His willingness to defend the gospel of Christ is impressive to any Christian.

I would have to agree with that stipulation.
