Romans 8:18-30 - The Glory That Is To Be Revealed

18 For I count as nothing what we now suffer, in comparison with the glory which will soon be unveiled to us. 19 All nature even is waiting with eager longing for the unveiling of the vision of God's sons. 20 For nature was subjected to imperfection, not by its own will, but by the will of Him who thus made it subject??21 yet not without the hope that some day nature itself also will be freed from the thralldom of decay, into the freedom which belongs to the glory of the children of God. 22 For we know that all nature has been groaning and travailing together until this hour. 23 And not only that, we ourselves, although we are grasping the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves are inwardly groaning, while we are waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body. 24 For by hope we are saved; but hope which is clearly seen is no longer hope. 25 Who hopes for what he clearly sees? But if we hope for something that we do not see, we then patiently wait for it.

26 In the same way the Spirit also takes hold with us in our weakness; for we know knot how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And the Searcher of Hearts knows what the Sprit's meaning is, because his intercessions for the saints are according to the will of God.

28 Now we know that all things continually work together for good to those who love God, to those who have been the called according to his purpose. 29 For whom he foreknew, he also foreordained to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, so that he might be the eldest of a great brotherhood; 30 and whom he foreordained, those he also called; and whom he called, those he also justified; and whom he justified, those he also glorified.
