\"Screen<\/a>Today on Bible News Radio we are continuing our weekly bible study in the book of Romans chapter 8. \u00a0 Today we will be looking at verses 26-39.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the text that offers much hope to Christians who are discouraged and struggling, especially in light of the recent Unconstitutional SCOTUS gay marriage decision.<\/p>\n

\n

26<\/b><\/a><\/span>In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for\u00a0us<\/i>\u00a0with groanings too deep for words;\u00a027<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to\u00a0the will of<\/i>\u00a0God.<\/p>\n

28<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to\u00a0His<\/i>\u00a0purpose.\u00a029<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined\u00a0to become<\/i>\u00a0conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren;\u00a030<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.<\/p>\n

31<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>What then shall we say to these things? If God\u00a0is<\/i>\u00a0for us, who\u00a0is<\/i>\u00a0against us?\u00a032<\/b><\/a><\/span>He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?\u00a033<\/b><\/a><\/span>Who will bring a charge against God\u2019s elect? God is the one who justifies;\u00a034<\/b><\/a><\/span>who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.\u00a035<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?<\/p>\n

36<\/b><\/a><\/span>Just as it is written,
\n\u201cFOR<\/span>\u00a0YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG<\/span>;
\nWE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED<\/span>.\u201d<\/p>\n

37<\/b><\/a><\/span>But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.\u00a038<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,\u00a039<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
