Romans 16: Greetings, Warnings, and Glory
Paul commends Phebe, greets a church of Jews and Gentiles, men and women, slave and free, warns them to mark and avoid those who divide against the apostles' doctrine, promises that the God of peace will crush Satan, and closes the letter with glory to the only wise God.
The lesson walks through the topic one card at a time. The full study is the complete written article, with its sources.
Describe what Romans 16 shows about the early churches: who belonged, where they met, and how they served.
Explain what Scripture says and does not say about Phebe and Junia, in agreement with what Scripture teaches about church offices.
Explain Paul's warning against those who cause divisions, how it differs from the counsel of Romans 14, and the promise of 16:20.
Trace the closing doxology back to the letter's opening, and summarize the argument of Romans as a whole.
