Rom 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
Rom 8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
The Spirit bears witness with OUR spirit.
We are SPIRITUAL beings! We cannot get around that! We can try but we can't. We can live in denial and many, many people do, but the truth is we are SPIRITUAL beings in need of communion with the SPIRIT of our LORD and SAVIOR.
Our Savior told us this…
Joh 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you
The COMFORTER was sent to us by JESUS CHRIST.
The COMFORTER would NOT come to us if Jesus did not depart.
We have the HOLY SPIRIT sent to us by OUR SAVIOR, and that SPIRIT will bear WITNESS with our SPIRIT, and that will reveal that we are the children of GOD, adopted by GOD, HIS, we belong to GOD.
We are HIS CHILDREN, and children are heirs of their parents. We are heirs of GOD. We are JOINT HEIRS with CHRIST, God's only begotten Son!
And if CHRIST suffered unimaginably why do we ever imagine we will not suffer?!
Maybe we won't be physically abused but we will suffer emotionally, and yes, spiritually, as well as mentally. We will be tried. We will be put to the test. We will go through a lot as we live as the sons and daughter's of our GOD.
As Christ suffered, we will suffer and then we - as HE has been- will be GLORIFIED TOGETHER!
More tomorrow by the GRACE of GOD!
ALL in HIS LOVE!
