Faith Bible Institute Semester 3 New Testament Practice Test

Who is the author of Romans?

The Apostle Paul Luke Peter John

Correct Answer:

The Apostle Paul

Explanation:

The author is the Apostle Paul. Romans opens with Paul’s own identification as the writer—“Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God”—which directly shows who penned the letter and to whom it was addressed. This aligns with Paul’s usual pattern in his epistles and matches the historical view of his missionary work, including his aim to present and explain the gospel to both Jews and Gentiles. Luke, Peter, and John are known for their respective writings (Luke-Acts, Peter’s letters, and John’s gospel and Revelation), which carry different opening cues and purposes, so the internal evidence in Romans points clearly to Paul as the author.
