Scripture: Romans

Our Special Part

In Romans 9-11 we read how God is doing awesome things at many levels to make salvation available to every person in the world. In chapter 10 we learn about our special part!

The Freedom and Mercy of God

God is the only ultimately, fully free being. And He acts ultimately to share the beauty of who He is to the greatest extent, for the highest joy of His people.

Since God is for us, Who can be against us?

The end of Romans 8 is the climax of chapters 1-8. Here Paul shows that God always overrules all opposition at all times for His good and loving purposes for us.
