Romans 5:1-11 - Reconciliation With God Through Faith In Christ
1 Justified therefore of faith we have peace with God by our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 By whom also we have had access by faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast upon hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only, but also we boast in affliction: knowing that affliction works perseverance; 4 And perseverance, proof; and proof, hope. 5 And hope shames not; for the love of God has been poured in our hearts by the Holy Spirit given us.
6 For yet Christ, we being weak, Recording to the time died for the impious. 7 For scarcely for the just will any one die: yet for the good perhaps some also would venture to die. 8 And God recommends his own love to us, that we yet being sinful, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, justified now in his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath. 10 For if, being enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, reconciled, we shall be saved in his life. 11 And not only, but also boasting in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received reconciliation.
