Paul the Apostle's Epistle to the Romans is the sixth book in the New Testament. It explains that salvation is offered through the gospel of Jesus Christ. Pau separated Christianity for the custom of observance of the law of the Jews and argued that salvation comes from faith. It is the longest of the Pauline epistles and is considered the most important one theologically.

The righteousness from God has made itself known apart from the law and that this righteousness comes through faith in Jesus to all who believe. Justification (clearing the believer of the guilt and penalty of sin) is a gift of God, bestowed by faith. The faithful have been joined with Jesus and freed from sin. Believers can be assured of their hope in salvation by having been freed from the bondage of sin and that the promise of salvation is open to everyone since everyone has sinned

The Gospel transforms believers and their behaviour .This transformation is a "renewing of your mind. Christians are no longer under the Law of Moses but under the grace of God. Through our renewed minds, we know "almost instinctively" what God wants of us. The law now provides an "objective standard" for judging progress in the "lifelong process" of our mind's renewal. Believers are no longer bound to sin to the extent they have been set free by renewed minds. Believers are free to live in obedience to God and love everybody. Love is the fulfilling of law.

Paul also believed that human ungodliness and wickedness will bring wrath from God. He condemns what he sees as idolatry in Roman religion and unnatural sexual behaviour which he thinks will result in a depraved body and mind.

Where in the Bible does it say Romans was the longest letter Paul sent?

AnswerAs far as practicable, the epistles attributed to St Paul were included in the New Testament in order of length, with the longest letter by Paul, Romans, first and the short letter to Philemon placed last. So, although Paul did not write that this would be his longest letter, its placement shows us that it is the longest epistle of Paul.
