28th Week of Ordinary Time – Tuesday
My dear friends, today we continue our reading of Saint Paul's letter to the Romans, which, as we noted yesterday, is the only letter that he writes before visiting the actual people of Rome. He wrote this from Corinth and during his third missionary journey therein. And yesterday we spoke about how he was introducing himself, the gospel, the truth of the gospel, the salvation God is offering to all men, but that this message of goodness and holiness and generosity on God's part needs to be reciprocated with a worthy response, a response of conversion, conversion of heart.
