I have therefore had the experience of seeing a completely liberal church transformed to an evangelical testimony in the space of a few years by the power of the book of Romans. He went into his pulpit and began to proclaim the truths of the book of Romans and the church was transformed. This man read the book on the train back to Montana, and by the time he reached Great Falls, he was a transformed man. Ironside, who gave him a copy of his lectures on Romans. Ironside teaching the book of Romans, and his heart was captured by that message. He wanted to find something to criticize. The pastor was in Chicago on one occasion, and he went into the Moody Church to see what fundamentalists were saying. The lives of millions of people who have read the letter to the Romans have been drastically altered.Ī church I know of in Montana was once regarded as the most liberal church in the city of Great Falls. This is the epistle that burned in the heart of Karl Barth, who in our day set forth some of the mighty truths of this letter and thus captured the theological world, calling it back from the crass, empty liberalism of the nineteenth century, restoring much truth to the churches of Europe. There followed, through him, the great evangelical awakening that saved England from the fate of France and arrested the decay of English life, completely altering the history of the world again. Wesley said his heart was strangely warmed as he heard the truths of Romans set forth. This is the book that struck home as John Wesley sat in a little chapel in London listening to Luther's Prelude to the Epistle to the Romans. This is the book that lit the fire in Martin Luther's heart and brought about the Protestant Reformation, changing the history of Europe, as well as the world.
The Epistle of Paul to the Romans is undoubtedly the most powerful human document that has ever been written.
