And he starts talking about the earth being liberated from its bondage of decay.

So he goes from the human body to the body of the earth in, where does he start?

Verse 20.

He says the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice.

Remember there was a flood there because there's a lot of frustration.

What's going on?

But by the will of the one who subjected it in hope that the creation itself will be liberated, look, from its bondage to decay, this dead body.

Newsflash, the earth's not going to, it's dying.

You're like, oh, well, it looks great.

No.

You know, it's going to happen.

Oh, exactly.

So then he's like, we know the whole creation has been groaning.

But then verse 23, there's a transition.

Not only so.

Not only the earth has some brokenness and some death to it, but we ourselves –

who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, it's living in you, grown inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons.

Well, how do we become sons of God?

There's a comma there, and then these five words.

The redemption of our bodies.
