Context
The Expectation of Justification
5:1 Therefore , since we have been declared righteous by faith , we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ ,
5:2 through whom we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand , and we rejoice in the hope of God’s glory .
5:3 Not only this, but we also rejoice in sufferings , knowing that suffering produces endurance ,
5:4 and endurance , character , and character , hope .
5:5 And hope does not disappoint , because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us .
5:6 For while we were still helpless , at the right time Christ died for the ungodly .
5:7 (For rarely will anyone die for a righteous person , though for a good person perhaps someone might possibly dare to die .)
5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us , in that while we were still sinners , Christ died for us .
5:9 Much more then , because we have now been declared righteous by his blood , we will be saved through him from God’s wrath .
5:10 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son , how much more , since we have been reconciled , will we be saved by his life ?
5:11 Not only this, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ , through whom we have now received this reconciliation .
