Best Answer
A:

Paul wrote his Epistle to the Romans to a Christian community already established in Rome, so it could not have been his intention to begin a church in Rome. In that epistle, he expressed a desire to visit Rome on his way to Spain, and to preach his gospel to the church already existing in Rome. It seems likely that he did visit Rome on his way to Spain, but we have no way of knowing what his influence in Rome might have been.

Who was the reciepent of roman pauline epistle?

The recipient of Paul's epistle to the Romans was the Christian community living in Rome, Italy. There is also manuscript evidence that Paul sent a substantially similar copy of Romans to the Christians at Ephesus. It has also been suggested that the 16th chapter of Romans was not original to Romans but rather was appended to the copy of Romans that Paul sent to Ephesus. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that most if not all of the persons mentioned in Romans chapter 16 are persons known to have been connected with the church in Ephesus, but not with the church in Rome.
