What then shall we say in response to this?
If God is for us, who can be against us?
If he did not spare his own Son
but handed him over for us all,
how will he not also give us
everything else along with him?
Romans 8:31- 32
What will separate us from the love of Christ?
Will trouble, or hardship, or persecution,
or famine, or nakedness,
or peril, or the sword?
No, in all these things we triumph victoriously
through him who loved us.
For I am certain that neither death nor life,
neither angels nor principalities,
neither present things, nor future things,
nor powers, neither height nor depth,
nor any other creature, will be able to separate us
from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:35, 37- 39
Therefore, we do not lose heart.
Although our outer self is wasting away,
our inner self is being renewed day by day.
For our momentary light afflictions are producing
for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.
So we look not to what is seen but to what is unseen.
For what is seen is temporary,
but what is unseen is eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:16- 18
Behold what manner of love
the Father has bestowed on us,
that we may be called the children of God.
Yet so we are.
The reason the world does not know us
is that it did not know him.
Beloved, we are already children of God;
what we shall be in the future has not yet been revealed.
We do know that when it is revealed
we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
1 John 3:1- 2
