Many times I have hated God's children.
Can I be forgiven (every knee shall bow)
and bow too?

Thanks Tuberoot,
Tuberoot got it!

Here's what Tube says:
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

I checked all versions on biblegateway.com , it wasn't there. A chapter and verse would be helpful.

Romans 8:21
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Okay, hold on.

EDIT: Paul was talking about life in the Spirit in the first part of the chapter. We are dual natured beings, with a sinful nature and a divine nature living in us at the same time. That means that one nature is counter to the other ( Which makes us a sort of mutant, which inspired my X-men avatar). Paul was saying that even this fleshly nature which is contrary to the Spirit will be liberated, and brought into the promise of the Kingdom.

To make sure that this remains something to ponder on, this is the word translated 'creature' :

Strong's Number: 2937
Ktisis
Noun Feminine

1. the act of founding, establishing, building etc
1. the act of creating, creation
2. creation i.e. thing created

3. anything created 1b
4. after a rabbinical usage (by which a man converted from idolatry to Judaism was called) 1b
5. the sum or aggregate of things created
6. institution, ordinance

i think it means that one day Satan will parish in the very end, Satan knows this and thats why hes trying to gather as much people as possible before that happens, becuase really it doesnt a rocket science to see that Satan hates God's children
