New Bible Study Starts Tonight

There is a new Bible Study starting tonight at 6:00 pm in Oyster bay. Matt and Mary Stephenson will be hosting an exegetical Study of Paul's Epistle to the Romans. This is the first night for this new exciting study.
Paul wrote this epistle in anticipation of a trip to Rome. The church at Rome was started by believing Jews who were converted to the Gospel following Peter's sermon at Pentecost when the Holy Spirit was poured out. Paul wrote this epistle as a way of introducing himself and setting forth the gospel he preached to the church at Rome. It is a brilliant defense and explanation of the Gospel of salvation by grace.
Throughout history, Romans has been an influential book not only within the church but in society as a whole. Romans 1:17 (Look it up) was the spark on which Martin Luther built the fire that became the protestant reformation. For many years Law schools used the first 8 chapters of Romans as an instructional example of logic and defending a point.
This study begins at 6 pm tonight at Matt and Mary Stephenson's house in Oyster bay. For directions you may call the church at 0222 774 423 (Land line) or 0777 180 097.
