We are the Champions–Romans 8:28-39

There’s nothing we can do to separate ourselves from God’s love. This impenetrable bond was established by God before the foundation of the world (v. 29) while we were “yet sinners.” (Romans 5:8)

There’s nothing others can do either, because God has justified us (v. 33) and Christ intercedes for us (v. 34) on an ongoing basis.

If this is not enough, there’s no created thing (v. 39) that can pry us away from God’s love, no, not one!

He’s got us covered every which way to Sunday, and on that day too!

And it’s all credible because God allowed the ultimate sacrifice to be made by using his Son. The logic goes like this, if “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?” (v. 32)

So “We are the champions, my friend, and we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.”
