(Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death,… nor things to come, …. (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”   As we approach the tribulation period, this world will be full of evil and destruction like we cannot imagine. But know this: anyone who is truly saved cannot be robbed of that salvation, for it is God Who promised and it is God Who sustains.

 (Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death,… nor things present…. (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  If you read this verse in its totality, it is saying that nothing, nothing, no nothing among things that are in this life can separate the born again child of God from their Father!

(Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death,… nor powers…. (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  The word “powers” speaks of miraculous powers – other than God’s. I remind you that Jesus said,  (Joh_10:29)  “My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.”

(Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death,… nor principalities . (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  Principalities: authority          . No king or priest has the authority to take away what God has given freely. The salvation bestowed was given by God alone. He has promised the saved eternal life and no one can keep us from it! Glory to God! 

(Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels… (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  There are fallen angels led by Lucifer who would take the gift of salvation away from you, if it were possible. It is not. Their desire would be to stop God from loving you – but they cannot: (Eph_1:6) “To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.” 

(Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life… (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” There is nothing in this life that can separate the saved, those put “in Christ” and therefore “justified”, from the love of God. Since we did not do something to be loved, we can do nothing to keep it. It is all of God!

(Rom 8:38) “For I am persuaded, that neither death,… (39)  …..shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  Jesus is the resurrection and the life. In death the soul and spirit of the saved does not sleep, but goes to be with God (2 Cor 5:8).

WATER  (Rom 8:35)  “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?…. (36)  As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. (37)  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” How is it that verse thirty-six agrees with verse thirty-seven? Answer: this life should not be the Christian’s desire, resting place, or focus. Christ’s love in salvation takes us to where life will never end.
