I am obligated both to Greeks, and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.  That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.

As Christians we sometimes put ourselves in a place where we have a sort of disdain for the unsaved, reserving our friendship and grace only for our Christian brothers and sisters.   How will we reach those who don’t know Jesus with the Gospel,  if we do not establish some kind of relationship with them.  The Bible says, “Love your neighbor as you love yourself.”  It doesn’t say anything about the spiritual state of the neighbor being a qualification for loving them.
