From the Paper:

"In the Book of Romans, Paul attempts to provide a guide to living a Christian lifestyle. This guide, though directed to two specific groups, Roman gentiles and Jews, continues to be applicable to Christians today. However, Paul wrote the Book of Romans as a man and in the context of the laws of the day. This has created some confusion and intentional misrepresentation of some of the issues in the Book of Romans."
