Romans 8:14-21

English Standard Version

¹⁴ For all who are ^(A)led by the Spirit of God are ^(B)sons^[a] of God. ¹⁵ For ^(C)you did not receive ^(D)the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of ^(E)adoption as sons, by whom we cry, ^(F)“Abba! Father!” ^16 (G)The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, ¹⁷ and if children, then ^(H)heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, ^(I)provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

Future Glory

¹⁸ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time ^(J)are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. ¹⁹ For the creation waits with eager longing for ^(K)the revealing of the sons of God. ²⁰ For the creation ^(L)was subjected to futility, not willingly, but ^(M)because of him who subjected it, in hope ²¹ that ^(N)the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
