Throughout all of Romans 8, we’re given an expansive view of the gospel. From beginning to end, from verse 1 to 39, it’s all of grace — incandescent grace that fuels our “No Condemnation” and inexhaustible grace, still, that fuels our “No Separation.” The apostle begins by firmly declaring the colossal truth that “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Rom 8:1), and subsequently spends thirty-odd verses expounding upon this theme. He blazes a trail from there to “nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Rom 8:39)
No separation.
No separation.
