Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Romans 1:18-21

CRITICAL NOTESRomans 1:18. The wrath of God.—ὀργὴ Θεοῦ, God’s displeasure. The phrase is plainly anthropopathic. May express a particular instance of displeasure.Romans 1:19. That which may be known of God.—That concerning God which is knowable. St. Basil called the natural world a school of the knowledge of God. God is knowable though still unknowable.Romans 1:20. The invisible things of Him from the creation.—Cyril said that the eternity of God is proved from the corruptible nature of the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Romans 1:16-17

Romans 1:16-17 Consider: I. The condition to which man has reduced himself by transgression, which makes "the power of God unto salvation" the pressing and constant need of his soul. Power is of God, because power is life, and life is of God. If power be gone, God only can renew it. Man is manifestly godlike in the serene composure of his being; he knows the struggles to live up to it, yet falls back into the gloom of the nether abyss. It is a sight of unspeakable piteousness. It would be an... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Romans 1:17

Romans 1:17 (R.V.) I. The most characteristic and weighty expression in this verse is of course God's righteousness, the revelation of which makes the gospel to be a saving power. The Pauline use of the word righteousness is this: righteousness is the condition of any man's being justified, vindicated in law or acquitted of blame by his righteous Judge. And the characteristic of the gospel its joy and glory lies here, that it has revealed how that condition of our justification has been... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Romans 1:18-32

Romans 1:18-32 The Natural History of Paganism. I. St. Paul's first proposition is, that from the first the heathen knew enough of God from His works to render them without excuse for not worshipping Him. II. Secondly, the Apostle declares that the heathen have culpably repressed and hindered from its just influence the truth which they did know respecting God. He traces polytheistic and idolatrous worship to its root. (1) Its first origin he finds in a refusal to walk honestly by such light as... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Romans 1:1-32

This time let us turn in our Bibles to Romans, chapter 1. Paul opens his epistle to the Romans declaring:Paul, a bond slave of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God ( Romans 1:1 ).Twenty-five years before Paul wrote this epistle to the Romans he was on the road to Damascus to imprison the Christians there. When suddenly about noon there came a light brighter than the mid-day sun and there the Lord said, "Saul, Saul why persecute thou me?" And he answered and... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Romans 1:1-32

Romans 1:1 . Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, in the sense he himself illustrates to the Corinthians. Ye are not your own; ye are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. Called to be an apostle, and endowed with heavenly gifts in a special manner, when the Lord himself appeared to him, as stated on Acts 9:15; Acts 22:14. This call, being purely divine, made him a debtor to all men, and gave him a title to address... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Romans 1:17

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. Ver. 17. The just shall live by faith ] Habakkuk 2:4 , that is, they shall enjoy themselves by their faith, in greatest disasters or dangers, when others are at their wits’ ends. That is the prophet’s sense; and the apostle not unfitly applieth it to prove justification by faith alone, for if a man live by faith he is just by faith. read more

John Trapp

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Romans 1:18

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Ver. 18. Who hold the truth ] Hold the light of their conscience (which is as a prophet from God) prisoner. The natural man, that he may sin the more securely, imprisons the truth which he acknowledgeth, and lays hold on all the principles in his head that might any way disturb his course in sin, locking them up in restraint. Hence it appears that no man... read more
