Today, a more powerful and familiar way to translate "rhema" might be as "facts", but this will depend on context.  In Acts 11:16, it could be "facts explained"; in Luke 1:38, it could be "as you say."
    
According to the ''[[Liddel-Scott-Jones]]'' - a leading [[Greek]]-[[English]] lexicon when it was first published in 1843<ref>http://www.lib.umich.edu/database/online-liddell-scott-jones-greek-english-lexicon</ref> - the main meaning of ῥήμα is ''that which is said'' or ''spoken'', ''word'', ''saying''.
