Paul shifts to a serious tone as he urges the Roman believers not to be deceived by false teachers within the church. He then draws our attention to “the mystery”. This is the glorious conclusion to the proof of His love for His Church, a love ultimately manifested in her resurrection and established forever for His glory.
Paul nears the end of Romans 16 by continuing his greetings and commending his fellow workers in Christ. He remembers many of the family of God with affection and gratitude.

We are encouraged to stay the course, remaining generous with both our time and resources.
