God's Inseparable Love (Romans 8:35-39)

This week at Grace, we will conclude Romans 8 with some of the most comforting verses in the whole Bible. Paul assures everyone who is in Christ that nothing "will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."

I've included three songs below that we sing here at Grace to prepare our hearts for this beautiful passage. Each song has a link if you'd like to listen, and I've included some relevant lyrics to meditate on.

Praying for you,

In Christ Alone | Verse 4

No guilt in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand

He Will Hold Me Fast | Verse 3

For my life He bled and died

Christ will hold me fast

Justice has been satisfied

He will hold me fast

Raised with Him to endless life

He will hold me fast

'Til our faith is turned to sight

When He comes at last!

All Sufficient Merit | Verse 4

All sufficient merit, firm in life and death

The joy of my salvation shall be my final breath

When I stand accepted before the throne of God

I'll gaze upon my Jesus, and thank Him for the cross


35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written,

β€œFor your sake we are being killed all the day long;
    we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 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.
