The tension in Rome arose from differing approaches to practicing faith, with some emphasizing strict religious observance while others embraced a more relaxed attitude toward spiritual standards. Paul challenges both extremes, showing that true faith transcends these approaches. Instead, genuine faith establishes a transformative relationship with Christ that naturally shapes behavior and choices. When faith is authentic, it develops a spiritual sensitivity that helps believers recognize and respond to things that separate them from God. This sensitivity leads to conviction rather than shame, motivating believers to seek help from God and fellow Christians. The result is a faith that produces genuine righteousness through relationship rather than rigid rule-following.
