[:en]In the final chapter of Romans, Paul mentioned and recorded all the people who had helped him in his ministry. Among them are Phoebe, Priscilla and Aquila, Epenetus, Mary, Andronicus and Junias, Ampliatus, Urbanus, Stachys, Apelles, Aristobulus, Herodion, Narcissus, Tryphena and Tryphosa, Persis, Rufus, Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, Philolous, Julia, Nereus and Olympas (vs. 3-15) and his fellow workers -Timothy, Tertius, Gaius, Erastus, and Quartus. (vs. 21-23)
We should likewise learn to acknowledge and appreciate people who have helped or encouraged us in our ministry.
Paul reminded the believers to watch out and keep away from those people who cause divisions (v. 17). He urged them to “Be wise about what is good and innocent about what is evil” (v. 19)
