The restrainer is the Spirit of God.

Why didn't Paul say so?

The reason is evident.
Paul was not referring to the Spirit of God, about Whom he would have had no reason to be secretive.
He was referring to the Roman government, about whom he had every reason to be secretive.
The early Church understood this.
The Reformation Church understood this.
Why doesn't the contemporary Church understand it?
