Q: Why did Paul write the epistle to the Romans?

A: Romans 1:5 to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of His Name among all the nations

May our aim today be the same.

to bring about Obedience

of Faith

for the Sake

of His Name

If any question remained of this being the primary intent of this epistle, the final words of it reiterate the matter clearly.

Romans 16:25-27
Now to Him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages 26 but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith— 27 to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.
