Go with me to Romans 8, please.

We begin a new series speaking about loving God.

And the Lord quickened me about this sometime back.

And I just know it's another part.

The Lord is giving us parts of his plan.

Each segment of what he's ministering to us from the Word is building us up, preparing

us for what's coming next.

And when I say next, I mean not just the rest of your life, but after this life.

Everything we gain in our relationship with God and our faith in Him, we will carry with us out of this life into the next.

Didn't the scripture say the saints that leave here in Revelation it says

they're resting from their labors and their works do follow them.

Their works do follow them. Well, somebody said, well, you can't take it with you not entirely true

not entirely true you can't take this natural stuff with you you wouldn't want to your good

stuff's over there you wouldn't want to to. But the things that matter, things that are done at his direction, in love, in faith,

they are fruit that remains.

Anybody happy about that?

Well, in Romans the 8th chapter and the 28th verse, notice this, Romans 828 says,

we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.

Young's literal translation says it like this.

We have known that to those loving God, all things do work together for good, to those who are called

according to purpose.

Now, the original language here puts the emphasis to those, to those.
