Christians in the first century lived in a world ruled by Rome. The vast size of the Roman Empire meant that it incorporated many different people groups who followed many different religions. Christians were thus often confronted with practices mandated by the local authorities where they lived that went against their faith in Jesus. But even more problematic, they were also often confronted with worldviews and systems of belief that went against their faith.This was especially true of the believers who lived in the capital city of Rome. So it was that when Paul decided to visit the city, he first sent them a letter outlining the key principles and doctrines of the Christian faith. Paul explained what humans are really like (sinful), what God has done to provide an escape from the consequences of humanity s sin, and what a lifestyle that goes out of a Christian worldview looks like. Today, we need to know the same! We need to have a deep understanding of what we believe so we know how to respond when faced with other beliefs that go against Christ.Each study in the NIV Application Commentary Resources series employs a three-step process to help you understand both the historical meaning of a biblical text and its relevance in modern times. The original meaning section reveals the questions and concerns the author was addressing. The past to present section then explains what significance the original audience would have found in the passage and what significance you can find in it today. Finally, the questions that accompany each section will help you specifically apply the author s words and teachings and find meaning in them for what you are facing in your life.Lessons:The Gospel of Righteousness by Faith (Romans 1–32; 3:21–26)Addicted to Sin (Romans 2:1–3:20)The Righteousness of God (Romans 3:21–4:25)Peace and Hope (Romans 5:1–21)Freedom from Sin (Romans 6:1–23)Freedom from the Law (Romans 7:1–25)Life in the Spirit (Romans 8:1–39)The Problem of Israel (Romans 9:1–10:21)Israel s Future (Romans 11:1–36)The Transformed Life (Romans 12:1–21)Love and Law (Romans 13:1–14)Life Together (Romans 14:1–16:27)

Autobiografie Johnnyho Rottena (vlastním jménem John Lydon) popisuje, jak se z původně nesmělého až zakřinutého kluka vyrůstajícího v chudém prostředí londýnské pracující třídy stala v hudebním světě respektovaná osobnost a ikona britské punkové scény 70. let. Sex Pistols, ve kterých zpíval, vydali jedinou řadovou desku, ale i tak se řadí mezi nejkontroverznější a nejvlivnější kapely rockové historie. A nutno podotknout, že Johnny Rotten na tom měl (především svými buřičskými texty) opravdu lví podíl. Kromě vzpomínek samotného aktéra obsahuje kniha řadu postřehů nejrůznějších lidí, kteří měli se Sex Pistols co dočinění, za všechny jmenujme alespoň hudebníky Billyho Idola nebo filmaře Juliena Templa. Mnohými komentáři přispěli i ostatní žijící členové kapely, ovšem až na baskytaristu Glena Matlocka, který Rottenovi prostě nepadl do oka. Nemalý prostor je věnován i manažerovi Sex Pistols, Malcolmovi McLarenovi, kterému Rotten rovněž nemůže přijít na jméno. Situace dokonce dospěla tak daleko, že se s ním Johnny Rotten dlouhá léta (úspěšně) soudil. Text knihy je doplněn množstvím fotografií, z nichž některé nebyly do vydání knihy nikdy předtím publikovány. Nemálo příznivců punku jistě překvapí, že Johnny Rotten ve své biografii nevystupuje jen jako rebel a ortodoxní punkáč, ale i jako upřímný, citlivý a vnímavý člověk, který se nestydí říct, co si myslí. Škoda, že takových lidí není na světě víc.
