Romans
8: 28-39
28
AND WE KNOW THAT IN ALL THINGS
GOD
WORKS FOR THE GOOD OF THOSE WHO LOVE HIM,
WHO
HAVE BEEN CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE.
29
FOR THOSE GOD FOREKNEW
HE
ALSO PREDESTINED TO BE CONFORMED
TO
THE LIKENESS OF HIS SON,
THAT
HE MIGHT BE THE FIRSTBORN
AMONG
MANY BROTHERS.
30
FOR THOSE HE PREDESTINED,
HE
ALSO CALLED, HE ALSO JUSTIFIED;
THOSE
HE JUSTIFIED, HE ALSO GLORIFIED.
31
What then, shall we say in response to this?
IF
GOD IS FOR US WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?
32
He Who did not spare his own Son,
But
gave him up for us all--
How
will He not also, along with ;Him,
GRACIOUSLY
GIVE US ALL THINGS?
33
WHO CAN BRING ANY CHARGE
AGAINST
THOSE WHOM GOD HAS CHOSEN?
IT
IS GOD WHO JUSTIFIES.
34
WHO IS HE WHO CONDEMNS?
CHRIST
JESUS , WHO DIED--
MORE
THAN THAT, WHO WAS RAISED TO LIFE--
IS
AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD
AND
IS ALSO INTERCEDING FOR US.
35
WHO SHALL SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF CHRIST?
SHALL
TROUBLE OR HARDSHIP OR PERSECUTION
OR
FAMINE OR NAKEDNESS OR DANGER OR SWORD?
36
As it is written:
'For
Your sake we face Death all day long;
We
are considered as Sheep to be Slaughtered.'
37
NO, IN ALL THESE THINGS
WE
ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS
THROUGH
HIM WHO LOVED US.
38
FOR I AM CONVINCED
THAT
NEITHER DEATH NOR LIFE,
NEITHER
ANGELS NOR DEMONS,
NEITHER
THE PRESENT NOR THE FUTURE,
NOR
ANY POWERS,
NEITHER
HEIGHT NOR DEPTH,
NOR
ANYTHING ELSE IN ALL CREATION,
WILL
BE ABLE TO SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD
THAT
IS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.
(Romans
8:28-39)
If
we Stand firm in the Faith given us by Christ,
Nothing
can separate us from His Love,
And
we, thereby, Conquer this Wicked World
By
this same Faith.
