Fourth Sunday of Advent Romans 16:25-27
Now to God who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel
and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the
mystery that was kept secret for long ages but is now disclosed, and through the
prophetic writings is made known to all the Gentiles, according to the command
of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith-- to the only wise
God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever! Amen.
As
Advent draws to its close, and the celebration of the Incarnation draws near,
Paul models for us how we as Christians worship God by the giving of our praise
to God. It’s a very short reading, but
the power of these few verses exceeds the number of those verses.
Father
Timothy+
