Romans 1:14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to wise and to unwise.
Greeks = those who spoke Greek and who had adopted Hellenistic culture, in contrast to barbarians who had not.
Greeks & barbarians would refer to all peoples. Like saying Jew & Gentile.
a debtor or obligated because Paul considered himself called to preach the gospel, therefore owing Greeks & barbarians alike, the gospel.
It's like having a free copy of something that you are suppose to give to all people. Your in debt to them until it's delivered.
THIS IS A GOOD WAY TO VIEW OUR CHRISTIANITY.
WHEN WE’RE AROUND A NON-BELIEVER WE OWE THEM THE GOSPEL.
