Romans 8:16-18
Good News Translation
16 God's Spirit joins himself to our spirits to declare that we are God's children. 17 Since we are his children, we will possess the blessings he keeps for his people, and we will also possess with Christ what God has kept for him; for if we share Christ's suffering, we will also share his glory.
The Future Glory
18 (A)I consider that what we suffer at this present time cannot be compared at all with the glory that is going to be revealed to us.
