Romans 8:16-18 – Children of
God
Vs 16 - The Spirit bear witness in our Spirit. He testifies to our spirit and heart that we
are the children of God. What a
scripture of assurance. You are the son
and daughter of God.
Vs 17 – The reality of this
life in Christ and in the Spirit is that we are not only children but heirs of
God. What a thought, we are joints heirs
with Jesus Christ. What ever He has we
will have. We will suffer with Him but
we will also be glorified with Him as well.
Suffering is part of the Christian life but with that suffering also
comes glorification later.
Vs 18 – Paul says that the
present suffering is nothing in comparison with what comes later,
glorification. Suffering produces the
glory of God, The glory of God is the
character and essence of God. You become
more like the Lord through your suffering.
