Romans 8: 35-36 | When Suffering Tries to Separate Us


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore Romans 8:35-36, where Paul confronts the harsh realities of the Christian life. He asks, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?” and lists out hardships like tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, nakedness, danger, and sword. We’ll unpack why Paul presents these trials and the profound assurance he offers—that even when we feel like “sheep to be slaughtered,” Christ’s love remains constant and unbreakable.


We’ll dive into how Paul isn’t sugarcoating the Christian life. Following Christ means facing real struggles, doubts, and suffering. Yet, the radical truth Paul offers is that none of these trials can ultimately sever us from the love of Christ. Even when suffering makes us question God’s care, we can trust that Christ’s love for us is deeper and stronger than any force in this world. Join us as we uncover the unshakeable reality of a love that holds us fast, no matter what we face.
