Read: Romans 8:38,39 Title: For I am persuaded First, let us go over the list: 1] death: separation of soul and body; separation from the earth 2] life: natural, temporal life 3] angels: evil angels 4] principalities: civil magistrates 5] powers: false teachers w/ power of working miracles 6] things present: present evils, afflictions 7] things to come: whether good or bad 8] height: honor 9] depth: disgrace 10] any other creature We, as Christians, must be as much convinced as Paul that none of the things listed above can derail Gods plan and continuing work in us in molding us to conform to the image of His Son; That if any affliction or tribulation, or any evil thing we could imagine would come to touch our lives in diverse ways, we should not view them as signs that the Lord has left us and that we shall not reach the point of being jointly formed with the Lord Jesus. But are we affectionately in-love with God, and are we living in the spirit of obedience to Him? If our answer to these questions is yes, then nothing can stop us from being like the Lord Jesus, which is the good (Rom. 8:28) that God has ordained for us.
