youll hear many funny, crazy things

 

things like

“One man with God is a majority”

 

when actually

God is the majority all on His own

He doesn't need us to stand with Him

 

which is another funny, crazy thing

of the many you could hear

as if God could be at all democratic

 

persuaded? on occasion, perhaps

but God accede to a majority? never!

 

yet at His side you simply cannot lose

 


 

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? Who will bring charges against Gods elect? God is the one who justifies; who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, but rather, was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or trouble, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? Just as it is written:

 

“For Your sake we are killed all day long;

We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

 

But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

 

Romans 8:31-39
