Who Shall Separate Us?

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  Romans 8:35-39

When I was a young Christian, I recall hearing many messages on Satan’s power and his desire to destroy believers.  It was not surprising therefore, for me to begin to think and fear that somehow he could affect my relationship with God.

It was my reading of the above passage however, and the comprehension that Satan is a creature, a created being, that freed me from this fear…….Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Jesus Christ our Lord!
