This certainty reflects his trust in God's promises and his understanding of his apostolic mission. In a conservative Christian perspective, this confidence is seen as a model for believers to trust in God's plans and purposes, even when the future is uncertain.<p><b>that when I come to you</b><br />Paul's intention to visit the Roman believers is not just a casual plan but a divinely inspired mission. The phrase indicates a future event that Paul anticipates eagerly. Historically, Paul's journeys were fraught with challenges, yet his determination to visit Rome underscores his commitment to the spread of the Gospel. This reflects the importance of fellowship and mutual encouragement among believers, a principle that remains vital in the Christian community today.<p><b>I will come</b><br />The repetition of the verb "come" emphasizes Paul's resolve and the certainty of his visit. The Greek verb "erchomai" suggests movement with purpose. Paul is not merely traveling; he is on a mission ordained by God. This highlights the idea that Christian service is not random but directed by divine will, encouraging believers to seek God's guidance in their endeavors.<p><b>in the fullness</b><br />The term "fullness" (Greek "pleroma") conveys the idea of completeness and abundance. Paul anticipates that his visit will be marked by the complete manifestation of God's blessings. This fullness is not just for Paul but for the entire Roman church, suggesting that God's blessings are meant to overflow and impact the community. It serves as a reminder that God's grace is abundant and sufficient for all needs.<p><b>of the blessing</b><br />The word "blessing" (Greek "eulogia") refers to a good word or benefit. In the biblical context, blessings are often associated with divine favor and empowerment. Paul expects that his visit will bring spiritual enrichment and encouragement to the Roman believers. This reflects the conservative Christian belief in the power of spoken blessings and the importance of edifying one another in the faith.<p><b>of Christ</b><br />The source of the blessing is Christ Himself. This phrase underscores the centrality of Jesus in Paul's ministry and the life of the church. All blessings flow from the relationship with Christ, who is the head of the church. This highlights the conservative Christian emphasis on Christ as the foundation of all spiritual blessings and the ultimate source of life and hope for believers.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/romans/15.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(29) <span class= "bld">I shall come in the fulness.</span>--I shall bring with me, come furnished with, the fulness of the blessing of Christ.
