Romans 5:1-11


Results of Justification by Faith

aTherefore, having been justified by faith, 1bwe have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 through whom also we have aobtained our introduction by faith into this grace bin which we stand; and 1we boast in hope of the glory of God. 3 aAnd not only this, but 1we also bboast in our afflictions, knowing that affliction brings about cperseverance; 4 and aperseverance, bproven character; and proven character, hope; 5 and hope adoes not put to shame, because the love of God has been bpoured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 For while we were still aweak, bat the right time cChrist died for the ungodly.
7 For one will hardly die for a righteous man, 1though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. 8 But God ademonstrates bHis own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, cChrist died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified 1aby His blood, we shall be saved bfrom the wrath of God through Him. 10 For if while we were aenemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved 1bby His life. 11 aAnd not only this, 1but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received bthe reconciliation.
