''Romans'' contains a logical and straightforward condemnation of [[wicked]]ness, including [[homosexuality]] (Romans 1:32 condemns even the approval of homosexuality by those who do not themselves practice it. See also: [[Homosexuality and biblical interpretation]]). Often-quoted passages of Romans include 1:18-32 (with verse 28 and its phrase "reprobate mind" being among the most quoted) and several verses used in an evangelistic tool commonly referred to as the "Roman Road" to [[salvation]] (often quoted in the order 3:23, 6:23, 5:8, 10:9 and 10:13).

Remarkably, ''Romans'' contains more references to "[[faith]]" than any other book in the Bible, except the much longer [[Psalms]] (which is the longest book by word count in the entire Bible).
