God certainly is graceful to us.<br><br>When I took a class on Romans in college my professor always liked to remind us that Romans is a fund raising letter. "I write you a sermon, you send me cash." I never thought it was that important, but he seemed to think it was. I argued with him that I thought it was Paul thanking the Romans for supporting his ministry more than asking for more money.
