Living in the Hope of Liberation from Bondage

Ligon Duncan discusses the practicality of Romans 8:16-25, focusing on its application to daily Christian living. He reveals that Paul addresses nine practical questions about Christian living in this passage. Essentially, this section highlights the significance of both the present and future aspects of Christian hope. Although critics argue that Evangelicals neglect the present in favor of future salvation, Duncan insists that the two are interconnected, with present suffering serving as part of the larger redemptive process leading to future freedom and glory. He also invites listeners to reflect on the Holy Spirit's role in revealing their son-ship and assuring them of their inheritance through suffering. Together, the passage offers comfort and assurance to believers, encouraging them to live with hope and perseverance in the face of present suffering while anticipating future glory

The gospel is the GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM! Jesus is going to return and set up the kingdom of God ON THE EARTH! God’s government ON THE EARTH! The Messiah died for his people! God resurrected the Messiah! The Messiah will resurrect his people! The destiny of the Messiah and his people is to be ON THE EARTH! The renewed restored earth! God also dwelling with them! Rev 21 Matt 24 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. Jesus said the Father is the only true God! John 17 3 And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.
