Discussion Questions
What is the benefit of being entrusted with the very words of God? How is that helpful to us, even today?
Additional Study: Romans 3:4 references Psalm 51:4. When you read Psalm 51, what does the context of this Psalm teach us about the character of God? How does this apply to Romans 3:3-4?
In Romans 3:9, Paul writes “Jews and Gentiles alike are all under the power of sin”? What does this teach us about sin? How would you explain this verse to another person?
Romans 3:10-18 have several Old Testament references. What do these verses teach us about the nature of sin in humanity?
According to Romans 3:20, what is the purpose of the Law? What benefit do we gain from understanding the Law?
