It was in Romans that Luther found the great truth of "justification by faith" alone. It was here that this man, struggling with assurance of salvation, uncovered the great truth-not just of Romans, not just of the New Testament, but of the entire Bible: the truth about the plan of salvation, "which was given to us in Christ Jesus Here We Stand: Luther on Romans 2 before time began" (2 Tim. 1:9, NKJV). And it is the truth that salvation is found only in the righteousness of Christ. This righteousness is credited to us by faith, a righteousness granted to us apart from the keeping of the law. Or as Paul so clearly expressed it in Romans: "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law" (Rom. 3:28, NKJV).
