Summary

Romans 5:1-11 5The result is this: since we have been declared ‘in the right’ on the basis of faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus the Messiah. 2Through him we have been allowed to approach, by faith, into this grace in which we stand; and we celebrate the hope of the glory of  God. 3That’s not all. We also celebrate in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces patience, 4patience produces a well-formed character, and a character like that produces hope. 5Hope, in its turn, does not make us ashamed, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the holy spirit who has been given to us. Jesus’ death reveals God’s love and guarantees final salvation 6This is all based on what the Messiah did: while we were still weak, at that very moment he died on behalf of the ungodly. 7It’s a rare thing to ﬁnd someone who will die on behalf of an upright person – though I suppose someone might be brave enough to die for a good person. 8But this is how God demonstrates his own love for us: the Messiah died for us while we were still sinners. 9How much more, in that case – since we have been declared to be in the right by his blood – are we going to be saved by him from God’s coming anger! 10When we were enemies, you see, we were reconciled to God through the death of his son; if that’s so, how much more, having already been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. 11And that’s not all. We even celebrate in God, through our Lord Jesus The Bible for Everyone: A New Translation . SPCK. Kindle Edition. Lord, you have given me so much, I ask for one more thing - a grateful heart.

Episode Description

Romans 5:1-11

5The result is this: since we have been declared ‘in the right’ on the basis of faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus the Messiah. 2Through him we have been allowed to approach, by faith, into this grace in which we stand; and we celebrate the hope of the glory of God. 3That’s not all. We also celebrate in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces patience, 4patience produces a well-formed character, and a character like that produces hope. 5Hope, in its turn, does not make us ashamed, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the holy spirit who has been given to us. Jesus’ death reveals God’s love and guarantees final salvation

6This is all based on what the Messiah did: while we were still weak, at that very moment he died on behalf of the ungodly. 7It’s a rare thing to ﬁnd someone who will die on behalf of an upright person – though I suppose someone might be brave enough to die for a good person. 8But this is how God demonstrates his own love for us: the Messiah died for us while we were still sinners.

9How much more, in that case – since we have been declared to be in the right by his blood – are we going to be saved by him from God’s coming anger! 10When we were enemies, you see, we were reconciled to God through the death of his son; if that’s so, how much more, having already been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. 11And that’s not all. We even celebrate in God, through our Lord Jesus

a grateful heart.
