Kim continues going through Romans 8, looking specifically at verse 23. Paul writes that his audience was "waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body." The timeframe of the New Testament is overwhelmingly imminent and "about to take place." Christians today are benefactors of what Paul's first-century audience was waiting for with great eagerness. Delaying these "soon to be" promises for 2000 years is a "hope deferred" and "makes the heart sick" (Proverbs 13:12).
