Romans

Romans 8:16–18

¹⁶The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. ¹⁷And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ — if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him.

¹⁸I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.
