Who Shall Separate Us
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Just as it is written,
"FOR THY SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH AEE DAY EONG; WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SEAUGHTERED."
But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Eord.
Romans 8:35 -39
