The God of peace This phrase emphasizes God's nature as one who brings peace, contrasting with the chaos and conflict often associated with Satan. In the biblical context, peace (shalom) is not merely the absence of conflict but the presence of wholeness and harmony. This aligns with the Old Testament portrayal of God as a peacemaker, as seen in Isaiah 9:6, where the Messiah is called the "Prince of Peace." The New Testament continues this theme, with Jesus offering peace to His followers (John 14:27). will soon crush Satan under your feet The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you Persons / Places / Events 1.

Lists and Questions Top 10 Lessons from Romans 16Romans 16:20 – How does the statement that God will “soon” crush Satan under believers’ feet square with the centuries that have passed without this apparent triumph occurring? What does the Bible teach about the nature of evil? Is Jesus mentioned in the Old Testament? If the heavenly messenger was so powerful, why would it take 21 days to overcome the opposing force, as implied in Daniel 10:13?(20) The God of peace.--We can well understand how the Apostle, in the midst of "fightings without and fears within," should look forward with joyous confidence to the time when both for him and his readers all this turmoil and conflict would give way to "peace." The reference seems to be to his near expectation of the Messiah's return, and with it the final victory of the faith. The Romans have not begun to feel the bitterness of divisions as yet; he foresees a time when they will do so. but beyond that he foresees a further time when all will be hushed and quelled, and the Great Adversary himself for ever overthrown.
