I Am Persuaded
The doctrines of the Bible are not a checklist of what is to be believed to get to heaven. They are much more important than that. Bible doctrine is God’s revelation of who He is, and His explanation of what He has done to accomplish the salvation of His elect and secure their glory. Paul was fully persuaded of his own salvation (and the salvation of others) because God showed him how and by whom it had been obtained. Paul was assured of the church’s inseparable union with Jesus Christ because the Lord explained how it had been achieved.

God Is For Us
One of Paul’s purposes in writing the book of Romans was to encourage the Lord’s people in their troubles and show how ‘the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us’. He tells us ‘all things work together’ for our good. This ‘all things’ is comprehensive. It includes all the divine persons and all the elements of the everlasting covenant. It includes everything created. Let there be no doubt, God is for us.

Inseparable
Throughout this chapter the Apostle Paul has been comforting the hearts and encouraging the faith of the Lord’s people. He has done this by explaining the fulness of the gospel and the work of Christ in salvation. Paul has set before the church the everlasting love of God and all that God has done for us. He has spoken of foreknowledge and predestination, justification, conversion and the glory that awaits God’s elect.

Together For Good
In Romans 8 Paul tells us all things work together for our good, that is, all things work together to deliver the glory God has promised to His beloved people. It is important to distinguish what is earthly good and temporal and what is spiritual good and eternal. The people of this world, being spiritually blind, measure joy and success in terms of earthly prosperity which is deceptive and fleeting. Spiritual men and women know with Paul, ‘that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us’.
