Romans 8 is a truly remarkable chapter that has comforted and blessed Christians throughout the ages. This is the case because Romans 8 summarizes the Gospel. As one author puts it, “If you know Romans 8 then you know the Gospel.” This chapter tells us that if we are in Christ then we are perfectly safe. As the song goes, “no power of hell, no scheme of man” will ever “pluck” us from the hands of God since he has so wonderfully and so lovingly redeemed us to himself through Jesus Christ. We are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus who loved us!

Spend October 19-20 exploring and mining the truths contained in this incredibly important chapter at Grace’s 3rd Annual Fall Bible Conference.
