The Book of Romans is Paul's introduction of himself and his doctrine to the local church in Rome, Italy, which he planned to visit after his ca. AD 58 visit to Jerusalem. The book was written ca. AD 57?58 at Corinth, Achaia (Greece), at the end of Paul's third missionary journey, before Paul went to Jerusalem and was arrested.
In Romans chapters 1?8 Paul contrasts righteousness by faith against righteousness by works. The rule of faith is sinners are saved by faith and the saved live by faith. The meaning of the text is explained using the literal historical-grammatical hermeneutic. Paul's letter to the local church in Rome is a rational study of genuine Christianity. Excursuses and appendices expand on key doctrines underlying Paul's assertions.

James D. Quiggle was born in 1952 at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. He grew up in Kansas and the Texas Panhandle. In the early 1970s he joined the United States Air Force. At his first permanent assignment in Indian Springs, Nevada in a small Baptist church, the pastor introduced him to Jesus and soon after he was saved. Over the next ten years those he met in churches from the East Coast to the West Coast, mature Christian men, poured themselves into mentoring him. In the 1970s he was gifted with the Scofield Bible Course from Moody Bible Institute. As he completed his studies his spiritual gift of teaching became even more apparent. He earned a bachelor's degree from Bethany Bible College during the 1980s while still in the Air Force. Between 2006?2008, after his career in the Air Force and with his children grown up, he decided to continue his education. He enrolled in Bethany Divinity College and Seminary and earned a Master of Arts in Religion and a Master of Theological Studies.
As an extension of his spiritual gift of teaching, he was prompted by the Holy Spirit to begin writing books. James Quiggle is now a Christian author with over fifty commentaries on Bible books and doctrines. He is an editor for the Evangelical Dispensational Quarterly Journal published by Scofield Biblical Institute and Theological Seminary.
He continues to write and has a vibrant teaching ministry through social media.
