“God” is not “in control”; as Love is not controlling…
1 Corinthians 13: 4-8a (NASB)
4 Love is patient, love is kind, it is not jealous; love does not brag, it is not arrogant.
5 It does not act disgracefully, it does not seek its own benefit; it is not provoked, does not keep an account of a wrong suffered,
6 It does not rejoice in unrighteousness [*self-righteousness], but rejoices with the truth;
7 It keeps every confidence, it believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails…
Romans 8: 14-17 (NASB)
14 For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons and daughters of God.
15 For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons and daughters by which we cry out, “Abba!Father!”
16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God,
17 And if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.
