Join Cornelius Warren and Samuel Fisher as they continue teaching through Paul's letter to the Romans. Tonight we will look at Romans 8: 29. But how can you know that Paul’s promise in verse 28 is true? In verses 29-30 Paul explains why you can know that verse 28 is true. We know that God works all things together for good for us because our salvation is part of His eternal purpose to glorify His Son.
Verse 29 specifies what “good” in verse 28 means. The “good” that God is working toward through all our trials is that we be “conformed to the image of His Son.” But the ultimate reason that God is working all things together to conform us to the image of Jesus Christ is not about us. It may shock you to hear this, but God didn’t save you to make much about you. Rather, He saved you so that Christ would be “the firstborn among many brethren.” God saved you so that you will make much about His Son. Our salvation is all about the supremacy of Jesus Christ.
