that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a
propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his

he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover
whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom
he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified,
them he also glorified. What shall we then say to these
things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that
spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how
shall he not with him also freely give us all things?”
– Rom. 8:28-32
