ROMANS 8:31-39

1. What should be our response to God’s choosing (v.31a)?
   • When we read verses 28-30, ‘what will we say in response?’
   • Why should the knowledge of God’s choice help to increase our assurance?
2. “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (v.31b)
   • What assurance do you receive from knowing that God is protecting us?
   • How does that assurance motivate and affect your behavior?
3. If God didn’t even spare His own Son, what is He willing to do for us (v.32)?
   • How does the depth of the sacrifice of Christ affect your devotion?
   • What will help us grow in our assurance of God’s love?
4. “Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen?” (v.33)
   • How does God’s choice of us take away Satan’s accusations?
   • If ‘the accuser cannot bring an accusation against us, why do we?
5. “Who is he that condemns?” (v.34)
   • How do any condemnations compare to the sustaining and interceding of Christ?
   • What will help us to let go of those condemnations? (I John 3:19-20)
6. “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?” (v. 35a)
   • If Jesus has all power and all authority (Matthew 28:18), who can take us from Him?
   • How does our accuser compare to our Savior?
7. Is there anything that can separate us from the love of Christ (v.35-39)?
   • What is it in all of creation that can separate us from the love of Christ?
   • If we are convinced of this truth, how will we behave?

Call to Action: To live for Christ with the assurance He intended for us.
