Romans 8:33-34 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifies.… Christ's love did not cease at the hour of death. We write in our letters, "Your friend till death"; but Christ wrote in another style — "Your friend after death!" Christ died once, but loves ever. He is now testifying His affection to us; He is interceding for us; He appears in the court as the Advocate for the client. When He hath done dying, yet He hath not done loving. What a stupendous love was here! Who can meditate upon this and not be in an ecstacy? Well may the apostle call it "a love that passeth knowledge." (T. Watson.) Parallel Verses KJV: Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.WEB: Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies. |
