Words Of Assurance!

Roman 8:38-39

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The apostle has not finished his search; he ransacks the universe for something that might conceivably separate us from God's love, then dismisses the possibilities one by one ---

-      Death with all its terrors; Life with all its allurements; angels nor principalities, supernatural in power and knowledge; 

-      Powers, whether human tyrants or angelic adversaries; 

-      Things are pressing in upon us;

-      Things to come, arousing fearful forebodings.

-      Height nor depth, those things that are in the realm of dimension or space, including occult

forces. Then, to make sure that he is not missing anything. Paul adds:

-      Nor any other created thing.

The outcome of the Apostle search is that he can find nothing that can separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  Commentary William MacDonald
