Don't Forget

After fifteen chapters of deep doctrine, the Apostle Paul closes the Book of Romans by focusing on people and relationships. This "Gospel according to Grace" shifts from our need for righteousness to the practical reality of God’s glory working through redeemed, everyday lives. By highlighting figures like Phoebe, Priscilla, and Aquila, Paul demonstrates that the power of God is meant to be lived out through active service and ministry. These examples serve as "stones of remembrance," reminding us that grace is not found in our own strength, but in our willingness to let God lead. Just as the work was distributed in the days of Joshua, the health of the Church today depends on every person stepping out in faith to do their special work. Ultimately, our obedience to this mission shows that we are making the right use of the grace we have received.
