“.. I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38-39 NIV).
Did you read that? Do you get that? Do you understand that?
Nothing can separate us from the love of God.
Nothing can separate us from the love of God.
Nothing can separate us from the love of God.
Nothing can separate us from the love of God.
To make sure we understand, the Apostle Paul lists some things that cannot separate us from “the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
1. Death cannot separate us from the love of God.
2. Life cannot separate us from the love of God.
3. Angels cannot separate us from the love of God.
4. Demons cannot separate us from the love of God.
5. The present cannot separate us from the love of God.
6. The future cannot separate us from the love of God.
7. Powers cannot separate us from the love of God.
8. Things above cannot separate us from the love of God.
9. Things below cannot separate us from the love of God.
10. Nothing else can separate us from the love of God.
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.*
*George Matheson, 1882
