Romans 16:25 NKJV
“Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began”
Romans 16:25 NKJV
The first thing Paul says in this doxology is that God is able to establish us according to the grace that Paul preaches.
This means that there is nothing that a believer cannot do because God has empowered them with His power to get the job done.
What Paul preached is grace.
It is God who has given gifts.
It is God who empowers and it is God who paid the penalties of our sins so that we all can start to work the work of Christ through Him.
The mysteries that have been kept from the beginning are now revealed, that is Jesus Christ Son of the living God.
We are to walk just as Christ walked in this world with authority, power and love.
Jesus is the revelation that all mankind needs.
Jesus is the Saviour of our lives.
Christ’s birth, death and resurrection are the foundation believers are called to build upon.
So that in Christ we all shall live, we all shall move and we all shall have our being.
God has done His part by taking the form of a man, by dying for men on the cross and by resurrecting from the dead.
Now it is our part to live in all that Jesus has established every day.
Blessings
Ps Ambrose
