The Gospel in Romans

The word gospel is found 13 times in the book of Romans, more times here than in any other book. The closest is Galatians at 11 times.

The gospel is mentioned in four verses in Rom. 1, in one in Rom. 2, and we don’t see it again until Rom. 10.

But we can learn a lot about it in the mentions we see here. Of course, the gospel is talked about using other words in other places, but for the sake of brevity, let’s just consider the word itself.

Rom. 1:1-2 – Separation, promise.

Rom. 1:9 – Service.

Rom. 1:15 – Preach.

Rom. 1:16 – Power, salvation, righteousness

Rom. 2:16 – Judgment.

Rom. 10:15-16 – Peace, obedience.
