Pauline Theology
-
Paul doesn’t deny suffering—he names it. But he says the love of God is deeper. Romans 8:31–39 offers covenant assurance that suffering can never undo. This is confidence, not comfort.
-
Romans 8:5–11 invites us to live from the future. Paul’s contrast between “flesh” and “Spirit” is not about feelings or dualism, but about which age shapes our lives. Christian ethics is not rule-keeping to earn identity; it is Spirit-led life flowing from resurrection identity. This is holiness between the times.
