Hey there, I am so glad that we get to serve you today through this podcast.

I pray God is going to speak to you.

And I pray that he'll just spring this word to life while we read it together.

28, it says, and we know.

Now, did we discuss last week that there are some things you just got to know?

And we talked about it being the knowledge of faith,

that sometimes it's not an intellectual knowledge that knows.

Sometimes it is the knowledge of faith,

that we just know based on who God is and what his word says,

no matter how I feel and no matter what I see,

I know this to be a fact.

It's that kind of no.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

29.

For those God forenew, he also predestined. Everybody say predestined? So obviously you can see we got a hot

potato tonight. We're going to be throwing it around a whole lot more when we get into chapter 9.

I'm just going to tell you in advance. We are going to touch on it. We have been predestined to be

conformed to the likeness of his son

that he might be the first born among many brothers and those he predestined he also you tell me

call say it again and those he called he also did what justified and those he justified he also what

glorified praise you lord a packed couple of verses if we'll ever find him we could have taken one of those and taught it in a lesson by itself

Melissa asked me today how I was going to approach it and I said you know I can either touch on all of them or I can take five weeks to camp on each one.
