8:16 - [In Context ]For his Holy Spirit speaks to us deep in our hearts and tells us that we are God's children.
8:17 - [In Context ]And since we are his children, we will share his treasures – for everything God gives to his Son, Christ, is ours, too. But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering.
