Romans 16:25-27

We are blessed by God through our faith in the salvation that He provided in Jesus Christ and by the power of the Holy Spirit within us we are sanctified in His mercy and grace.


revelation (Gk. apokalupsis) (16:25; Eph. 1:17; 3:3; Rev. 1:1) Strong’s #602: Revelation is God’s communication to people concerning Himself, His moral standards, and His plan of salvation. God has made Himself known to all people everywhere in the marvels of nature and in the human conscience, which is able to distinguish right from wrong (1:18–20; 2:14, 15). The message of salvation was seen dimly through OT sacrifices and ceremonies. But the full and final revelation of God has occurred in Jesus Christ (Heb. 1:1, 2). At the Cross, Jesus revealed supremely God’s self-giving love (Rom. 5:8). The good news is not complete until we hear that He rose again triumphantly over sin, Satan, and the grave, and is alive forevermore. The content of God’s special revelation concerning salvation is found in “the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of … the apostles of the Lord and Savior” (2 Pet. 3:2).

Romans 16:25-27
25 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 26 but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith—27 to God, alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.


20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 
Ephesians 3:20

24 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, 
Jude 24

that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ, 
Colossians 2:2

16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory. 
1 Timothy 3:16


25 To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen. 

Jude 25
