The bulk of the epistle to the romans deals with

The Epistle to the Romans, often abbreviated as Romans, is the sixth book of the New Testament. Biblical scholars agree that it was composed by the apostle Paul to explain that salvation is offered through the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the longest of the Pauline epistles and is considered his "most important theological legacy", as well as his magnum opus.

The Epistle to the Romans was written by the Apostle Paul with the assistance of a scribe, Tertius. This is the longest of Paul's epistles and the most complete one. The bulk of the epistle deals with an explanation of the doctrine of justification by faith in Jesus Christ rather than in acts. Therefore, its main message is that salvation is only possible through faith. The text was written to the members of the Church in Rome.
