Romans: The Power & Glory of the Gospel (Part 18)Romans 8:18-30// Our flesh will die. We deeply feel that reality. The pain of aging, the persistent weight of chronic illness, the dreaded diagnosis that casts a dark shadow over the future—all of these speak to the truth of bodies that are yearning for redemption. But death is not the end of the story. Rather than seeing our bodily suffering as a source of persistent annoyance, anxiety, and dread, the word of God is inviting us to see our bodily suffering as a universal sign that points toward something profoundly true: our bodies are not longing for just a better quality of life, our bodies are longing for the glory of resurrection. For with those whom the Spirit has given eyes to see Jesus for who he is, the suffering of Christ speaks to the hope that all our suffering will come to an end and the beginning of never-ending glory!
