Romans 8:28–39

²⁸And we know that for those who love God all things work together ^hfor good,⁸ for ⁱthose who are called according to his purpose. ²⁹For those whom he ^jforeknew he also ^kpredestined ^lto be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be ^mthe firstborn among many brothers. ³⁰And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also ⁿjustified, and those whom he justified he also ^oglorified.

God’s Everlasting Love

³¹What then shall we say to these things? ^pIf God is for us, who can be⁹ against us? ^32qHe who did not spare his own Son but ^rgave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? ³³Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? ^sIt is God who justifies. ^34tWho is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—^uwho is at the right hand of God, ^vwho indeed is interceding for us.^{10 35}Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? ³⁶As it is written,

^w“For your sake ^xwe are being killed all the day long;

we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

³⁷No, in all these things we are more than ^yconquerors through ^zhim who loved us. ³⁸For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, ³⁹nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
