Free by Divine Decree
Living Free of Guilt and Condemnation
The Apostle Paul writes the Book of Romans as a legal document to justify the believer’s freedom.
Many Christians interpret the Ten Commandments as God’s judgment on them. However, the book of Romans is written as a lawyer’s document, arguing that Christians are not under the law because faith in Christ gives them true freedom. In Free by Divine Decree, Paul Johansson hopes to inspire, instruct, and edify believers through the book of Romans.
