Romans:5:1-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Being therefore justified by faith ,
we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ ;
*
through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand .
We rejoice in hope of the glory of God .
*
Not only this ,
but we also rejoice in our sufferings ,
knowing that suffering works perseverance ;
*
and perseverance ,
proven character ;
and proven character ,
hope :
*
and hope doesn '
t disappoint us ,
because God '
s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us .
*
For while we were yet weak ,
at the right time Christ died for the ungodly .
*
For one will hardly die for a righteous man .
Yet perhaps for a righteous person someone would even dare to die .
*
But God commends his own love toward us ,
in that while we were yet sinners ,
Christ died for us .
*
Much more then ,
being now justified by his blood ,
we will be saved from God '
s wrath through him .
*
For if ,
while we were enemies ,
we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son ,
much more ,
being reconciled ,
we will be saved by his life .
*
Not only so ,
but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ ,
through whom we have now received the reconciliation .
