Text: Romans 8:31-39
If you have your Bible, turn to Romans chapter 8. We have been in a series for the last six weeks on Romans chapter 8. And today, we want to finish this series with a message titled, "Questions and Answers."
I was reading about Watchman Nee. You know, Watchman Nee was the Chinese Christian leader and author who made such an impact in the world and in his community for Christ.

That is good news. I remember hearing a sermon years ago when I was in college, and the preacher said, "Hey, you want a free trip to Hawaii? Find somebody in the Bible who lost his salvation." Not going to find it. He said, "You want two trips to Hawaii? Find someone in the Bi ...
