Now as I teach Scripture I always like to point out whenever possible how intricately this whole Book was put together. Man could have never dreamed it up, and here is another one of those little instances where Paul now unloads on us with eight distinctive statements. Now when you put that in the numerology of Scripture, remember `seven' is always God's number of completion, and when you follow that with an eighth, it is then always a new beginning or something that goes beyond the finish. Now I know that when the Apostle Paul was penning the Book of Romans, and he came here to verse 4, he didn't sit there and meditate for hours on end saying, "Now how can I find seven things, and then come up with an eighth." He didn't do that. He just penned as the Holy Spirit was giving him utterance, and now we can look at it and say, "Isn't it miraculous?" Here he comes up with another one of those situations that has been with us all the way through Scripture, seven things, but also an eighth one. 
 
 
Do you remember when we were studying the eight signs back in the Book of John? All eight signs were miracles. Well, seven of those signs took place before Christ's death, burial, and Resurrection, which completed all that had to be done, but in the last chapter of that Book we come up with the eighth sign and miracle, and it was that sign of new beginnings. So you see this all through Scripture.

Romans 8:18 
 
"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." 
 
 
When Paul says the sufferings of this time, he knew what it was to suffer. He tells us in II Corinthians some of what he had to suffer. 
 
 
II Corinthians 11:24-27 
 
"Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. Thrice (three times) was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice (three times) I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep (sea); In journeying often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness." 
 
 
He suffered all of those things for the sake of the Gospel. He suffered. You and I here in America know very little of suffering. Now, we may yet someday suffer, we hope not, but it could happen. But even with all the sufferings and hardships that this man went through, he said it's nothing compared with what's waiting for us, the glory that's going to be revealed.

Romans 3:23 
 
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" 
 
 
All have come short, and they can not meet God's criteria. They can no way claim to be good enough to enter God's heaven. In fact, it was the Navigators or the Campus Crusade who, in their little helps for students, witnessing one on one, admonished their students not to just ask someone, "Are you a Christian?" Because invariably people will say, "Yes," but instead you ask them, "Why should God let you into His heaven?"

Romans 8:5-7 
 
"For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh (the word here for `flesh' is another word for the old Adamic nature); but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit." A person that is a child of God is going to mind the things of the Spirit. 
 
"For to be carnally (another word for fleshly) minded is death (spiritual death, eternal doom); but to be spiritually minded is life and peace." And of course that life is eternal life. 
 
"Because the carnal mind (the mind we're born with, that mind that we've inherited from Adam) is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be."
