hanging out in romans 8

When I speak about a "believer" in my blog,
I am referring to
one who follows Jesus Christ.
To "those who are called according to His purpose."

If you are a believer, you have assurance because
God lives in you in the form of the Holy Spirit.
You desire the things of God and
you are aware of a huge gulf between you and the world.

I have been reading in Romans 8 for the last couple of days.
The last thirteen verses speak of "Our Victory in Christ."

Let these verses make your day....
relish in the truth that i will write here.
Rejoice in what God has done for you......

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
Shall tribulation,
distress,
persecution,
famine,
nakedness,
peril or sword?....."

"But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer,
through Him who loved us."

"for I am convinced 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 created thing,
shall be able to separate us
from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8: 34~35 and 38~39

That is without fail the most powerful statement
of His love for us that exists anywhere.

Praise Him from who all blessing flow.
Amen
