Creation – Rom 8:22-24
Vs 22 – All creation up to
this point has been groaning and travailing in pain. Things are not yet fulfilled but soon they
shall be.
Vs 23 – Not only creation is groaning
but we are as will. Paul called us the
first fruit of the Spirit. In fact we
are even now groaning ourselves. We can
hardly wait. The full adoption and
benefits of that adoption will come with the redemption of our body. When our bodies are fully glorified will the
full benefits of salvation be seen.
Vs 24 – We have been saved by
hope. Paul then says that when a person
has seen something they no longer have hope for they have seen what they hoped
for. When you have not seen what you
have hoped for you still have faith and trust.
You know God has promised it and now you are waiting for its
fulfillment.
