Romans 5:6-11 - Those Declared Righteous Are Reconciled

⁶ When we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. ⁷ Why, one will hardly die for a righteous manthough perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die. ⁸ But God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us. ⁹ Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved through him from the wrath of God. ¹⁰ For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. ¹¹ Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.
