About Romans 16Paul commends "Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea," and greets many in Rome, beginning with "Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus," who "for my life laid down their own necks," and "the church that is in their house." He warns, "mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them," and promises, "the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly." Greetings come from Timotheus, from "I Tertius, who wrote this epistle," and from Gaius, and the letter ends, "To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen."
