For years Christian believers have randomly quoted and arbitrarily applied the promises associated with Romans 8:28 as if it was some magical potion that erases all consequence and repercussions associated with their erroneous decisions and actions. Whenever scripture is misunderstood or taken out of context it leads to abuse and wayward thinking. The exegesis or Romans 8:18 provides the rations for the mature believer -- the one who loves God. This verse of scripture is not for everyone. Gaining an apprehension of this truth can be the beginning of a true breakthrough in growth and effectiveness as a believer.
