The invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.–Romans 1:20-21

All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.–Romans 8:28
Neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.–Romans 8:38‑39
Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.–Romans 10:4
