      Before getting started, let’s review a few notes that are common to my writings…

      *This work mostly uses British spelling, except for the quoted material, which often employs U.S. spelling.

      *Old Testament Scripture is normally taken from the NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE® (NASB), copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation. Used by permission.

      *New Testament Scripture is normally taken from the Analytical-Literal Translation of the New Testament: Third Edition (ALT3). Copyright © 2007 by Gary F. Zeolla of Darkness to Light ministry. Previously copyrighted © 1999, 2001, 2005 by Gary Zeolla.

      *The ALT3 distinguishes between singular and plural second-person pronouns by means of an asterisk (*).

      *The terms LORD, GOD, and Hashem are all ways to describe the personal name of God, also rendered as Yahweh or Jehovah.

      *Divine pronouns are normally not capitalized, unless they appear that way in Bible versions or other quotes.

      *As a general rule, words that appear in brackets within quotes are not found in the original texts, and were added by the translators or are my personal comments, etc.

But could I ask you to tear yourself away from the warm scenes of head-bashing-for-bargains to consider just one verse from an apostle of Jesus Christ?

      Wow, this sounds boring; doesn’t it? However, what are we really dealing with in Romans (in particular, chapters 1 through 11)? We are dealing with the bedrock theology of Christendom. The philosophical ideas that forever turned
