29. This is true because he already knew his people and had already appointed them to have the same form as the image of his Son. Therefore, his Son is the firstborn among many children.
30. He also called those whom he had already appointed. He approved of those whom he had called, and he gave glory to those whom he had approved of.
31. What can we say about all of this? If God is for us, who can be against us?
32. God didn’t spare his own Son but handed him over ⌊to death⌋ for all of us. So he will also give us everything along with him.
33. Who will accuse those whom God has chosen? God has approved of them.
