Romans 8:14-22

14For all who are 1being led by the Spirit of God, these are 2sons of God. 15For you 3have not received a spirit of slavery 4leading to fear again, but you 5have received 6a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “7Abba! Father!” 16The Spirit Himself 8testifies with our spirit that we are 9children of God, 17and if children, 10heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, 11if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.

18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time 12are not worthy to be compared with the 13glory that is to be revealed to us. 19For the 14anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for 15the revealing of the 16sons of God. 20For the creation 17was subjected to 18futility, not willingly, but 19because of Him who subjected it, 20in hope 21that 21the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know that the whole creation 22groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now.
