Romans:5:1-5
nkjv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
nkjv@Romans:5:2 @ through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
nkjv@Romans:5:3 @ And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;
nkjv@Romans:5:4 @ and perseverance, character; and character, hope.
nkjv@Romans:5:5 @ Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
