Romans is one of the greatest resources available to the Christian faith and life. Written in the mid-to late AD 50s to the congregation in Rome, Paul sent this pastoral letter to make clear the gospel, that salvation is from the Lord, that it is and has always been by his free favor alone (sola gratia), through faith alone (sola fide), in Christ alone. Jesus the Servant of God is the Savior promised to Adam and Eve, to Noah, to Abraham, to Moses, to David, and to the prophets. To make clear the centrality of Christ and the good news—the power of God for salvation of the ungodly—he lays out the greatness of our sin and misery (1:18–3:20), how we are redeemed from our sins and misery by the grace of God in Christ (3:21–11:36); and how we ought to live thankfully for such a redemption (12:1–16:27). In this episode Chris and I work through the rest of Romans 2.
Here is the episode.

I am reading Moo’s theological survey of Romans for seminary. He seems to be advocating a doctrine similar to Piper’s, final salvation. Do you know much about him?
The two-stage view is apparently widely held. I’ve seen Moo’s theology characterized variously. Those outside the confessional traditions can be difficult to classify.
