Romans 8:18

For the anxious longing of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.

Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,

Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners, who are outstanding to the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and Stachys my beloved.

Greet Apelles, the approved in Christ. Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus.

For our momentary, light affliction is working out for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison,

For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you do not do the things that you want.

by predestining us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,

Present Suffering and Future Glory
