What Can We Say (Romans 8:31-34)

Having asked and answered four rhetorical questions (i.e. Who can be against us if God is for us? Who can hinder God from giving us all things if He did not even spare His own Son? Who can bring a charge againts us when God has justified us? Who can condemn us when Christ died for us, rose for us, and is seated at the Father's right hand for us?), the apostle Paul teaches us that not only is the Judge of the entire universe on our side, we also have an Advocate.  We have a perfecct Man in heaven, Jesus Christ, who is right now interceding for us at God the Father's right hand.  All our hopes are pinned on Him.  Who is there to condemn us?  No one on earth or in hell below can condemn us because we are "in Christ."
