Romans 15:19 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 15:19

17 Therefore I have reason to glory in Christ Jesus ^ain the things which pertain to God.

18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things ^awhich Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, ^bto make the Gentiles obedient—

19 ^ain mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

20 And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, ^alest I should build on another man’s foundation,

21 but as it is written:
^a“To whom He was not announced, they shall see;
And those who have not heard shall understand.”

22 For this reason ^aI also have been much hindered from coming to you.

23 But now no longer having a place in these parts, and ^ahaving a great desire these many years to come to you,

24 whenever I journey to Spain,¹ I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, ^aand to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may ^benjoy your company for a while.

25 But now ^aI am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

26 For ^ait pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.
