Romans 1:16 – 17 are key verses in Paul’s letter to the Romans. They form the basis of all that Paul is going to discuss in the rest of his letter. Paul is not ashamed of the gospel because the gospel is the power of God to save people. There is nothing that can change lives like the gospel of Christ can. Paul experienced it in his own life, and he saw the effects of it when he told other people about Christ. Moreover, in the gospel, the righteousness of God is revealed. God freely and graciously credits or imputes His righteousness to those who put their faith in Jesus. It is because of these things that Paul is unashamed of the gospel of Christ, and is eager to proclaim it whenever and wherever the Lord gives him opportunity to do so.
