📚 Historical Context

In the first century AD, the Apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Romans from Corinth, addressing a church made up of both Jewish and Gentile believers who were facing various challenges in a diverse Roman society. He was introducing his gospel message that applies to all people, and in Romans 1:6, Paul affirms that the Roman Christians are included among those called by Jesus Christ, emphasizing the universal reach of God's invitation. This reflects the early church's mission to extend faith beyond traditional Jewish boundaries into the wider world.
