The Gospel Is The Road That Leads Us To God

You have probably heard the phrase, "All Roads Lead To Rome." This was a mantra of many in the ancient world all the way into Medieval literature to note the fact that the Romans had developed a vast infrastructure and system of highways and roads to stretch to all points of their empire. It was a source of pride for all Romans, but a source of intimidation to all under their control. Paul wanted to travel those roads to get to the believers in Rome. Those roads have long since deteriorated, along with the power of Rome, but the Gospel still stands today as the road that leads us to God.
