- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 25To the only wise God - See the Romans 16:27 note; 1 Timothy 1:17 note. Our Saviour - The word “Saviour” may be appropriately applied to God as such, because he is the great Author of salvation, though it is commonly applied to the Lord Jesus Christ.

They needed a renewed understanding of God. The believers needed to remember that God was powerful enough to help them stay faithful to him. They also needed to trust that God could protect them from being convinced by false teachings. God has the glory, majesty, power, and authority to bring them safely…Read the comment

You is in contradistinction to those ungodly men mentioned above. keep ... from falling--rather, "guard ... (so as to be) without falling," or stumbling. faultless--Greek, "blameless." before the presence of his glory--that is, before Himself, when He shall be revealed in glory. with exceeding joy--literally, "with exultation" as of those who leap for joy.Read the comment
