Romans 16

25

Now to him who is able to establish youaccording to my gospel and theproclamation of Jesus Christ, according tothe revelation of the mystery concealed for

long ages, 26 but is now disclosed throughthe prophetic scriptures , according to thecommandment of the eternal God, hasbeen made known for the obedience of

faith unto all the Gentiles – 27 to the onlywise God through Jesus Christ, to him beglory forever. Amen.



Romans 16

17 Now I admonish you, brothers, to watch out for thosewho want to cause dissensions and scandals contraryto the teaching which you learned, and turn away fromthem. 18 For such people are not slaves who belong toour Lord Christ but to their own appetites; and through

smooth and flattering speech they attempt to deceivethe hearts of the innocent. 19 For news of yourobedience has reached all ; therefore I rejoice overyou. But I want you to be wise concerning what isgood, and innocent concerning what is evil.

20 And the God of peace will soon crush Satan underyour feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.

Conclusion of Romans?

Conclusion of Romans?

Romans 16:25-2725 Now to him who is able to establish youaccording to my gospel and the proclamationof Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of

the mystery concealed for long ages, 26 but isnow disclosed through the propheticscriptures, according to the commandment of the eternal God, has been made known for the

obedience of faith unto all the Gentiles – 27 tothe only wise God through Jesus Christ, to himbe glory forever. Amen.



Conclusion of the Argument

Romans 15:7-137 Therefore, accept one another just as also Christ hasaccepted you unto God’s glory. 8 For I say, Christ has becomethe servant of the circumcision on behalf of the truthfulnessof God, for the purpose of confirming the promises which the

fathers were given ,9

and on behalf of the Gentiles to glorifyGod for his mercy, just as it is written, “On account of this Iwill offer praise to you among the Gentiles, and to your name Iwill sing psalms. ” 10 And again, it says, “Gentiles, rejoice withhis people. ” 11 And again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles,and let all the peoples sing praises to him. ” 12 And againIsaiah says, “The root of Jesse shall come and the one whowill rise to rule over the Gentiles, upon him the Gentiles shallset their hope. ” 13 Now may the God of hope fill you all with

joy and peace in your believing, that you may abound in hopeby the power of the Holy Spirit.
