Verse
Romans - ch 8 v 21 - 39
- that the creature itself also shall be set free from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
- For we know that the whole creation groans together and travails in pain together until now.
- And not only that, but even we ourselves, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, we also ourselves groan in ourselves, awaiting adoption, that is the redemption of our body.
- For we have been saved in hope; but hope seen is not hope; for what any one sees, why does he also hope?
- But if what we see not we hope, we expect in patience.
- And in like manner the Spirit joins also its help to our weakness; for we do not know what we should pray for as is fitting, but the Spirit itself makes intercession with groanings which cannot be uttered.
- But he who searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he intercedes for saints according to God.
- But we do know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to purpose.
- Because whom he has foreknown, he has also predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he should be the firstborn among many brethren.
- But whom he has predestinated, these also he has called; and whom he has called, these also he has justified; but whom he has justified, these also he has glorified.
- What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who against us?
- He who, yea, has not spared his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him grant us all things?
- Who shall bring an accusation against God's elect? It is God who justifies:
- who is he that condemns? It is Christ who has died, but rather has been also raised up; who is also at the right hand of God; who also intercedes for us.
- Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? tribulation or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
- According as it is written, For thy sake we are put to death all the day long; we have been reckoned as sheep for slaughter.
- But in all these things we more than conquer through him that has loved us.
- For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
- nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
