"Nor height nor depth nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

"The love of God is the source of His eternal salvation.  The love is in Christ and has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit.  Nothing can separate us from this love of God.  In God's salvation this love to us has become the love of Christ, which does many marvelous things for us through the grace of Christ until God's complete salvation is accomplished in us.  These marvelous things provoke God's enemy to attack us with all kinds of sufferings and calamities.  However, because of our response to the love of God in Christ, these attacks have become benefits to us.  Hence, we more than conquer in all our afflictions and calamities."

Romans 8:39 footnote 1
