No Separation
Romans 8 ends with the Apostle Paul’s glorious declaration of his confidence in Christ’s love. As Alistair Begg observes, such love doesn’t insulate believers from suffering and separation. Instead, we face life’s difficulties knowing that Jesus has overcome even death, and that nothing in all Creation can separate us from Him. It is not our fleeting emotion, but conscious dependence on the finished work of Christ, that enables us to live in the strength of His eternal love for us.
