And this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
All Commentaries on Romans 13:11 Go To Romans 13
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Now our salvation is nearer than when we believed. Some will have the sense to be, that our salvation is now nearer, when the gospel is preached, and Christ offers us his graces, than when we believed the Messias was to come. Others expound it, that the more of our life is spent, we come nearer to the judgment of God, and to the salvation promised in heaven. (Witham)
