Colossians 3:3

Christ in God.
Romans 8:35ff
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or
danger, or sword? 37 No, in all these things we are more than
conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither
death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things
to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all
