Romans 8:35 - St Michael and All Saints - Marbury, Cheshire East, UK. - Etched in Stone on Waymarking.com

A quote from Romans 8:35 appears on the memorial window to Reverend James Yorke located in St Michael and All Saints Church in the village of Marbury.

The quote "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?"
comes from Romans 8:35 in the King James Version of the Bible.
It can be seen in context below;
"33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God that justifieth.
34 Who [is] he that condemneth? [It is] Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter." SOURCE: (visit link)
