Bible Note: Hi John. Thank you for your post. Might I add the following verses of Scripture in support of what you have said. Rom 8:18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. Rom 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? Rom 8:36 As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” Rom 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Rom 8:38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, Rom 8:39 nor 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. You will note that in verse 38, Paul says, "neither death nor life", in other words, nothing in your life before your psychical death, nor anything in the life you will have after your psychical death, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Every blessing. parpar. |
