GOD’S PROMISE OF GOOD

Part 4

Romans 8:28

1.  From our perspective how do the events in our life often appear?

2.  How is “works together” [sunergeo] used in the New Testament?  What idea does this word convey?

3.  What is it that “works together” in the believer’s life?  Is “all things work together” a good thing?

4.  What is God’s plan and purpose, that all things are working together for?  Give some references.
