This lovely hymn accurately depicts the normal Christian life. By enjoying the law of the Spirit of life mentioned in Romans 8:2 saints are built up together which issues in chapter 16.
Here Paul greets twenty-five dear saints, and all the churches of Christ built up and expressing Christ in various localities.
