Popular Bible Verses from Romans 5

But this is how God demonstrates his own love for us: the Messiah died for us while we were still sinners.

Hope, 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.

That’s not all. We also celebrate in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces patience, patience produces a well-formed character, and a character like that produces hope.

The 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. Through 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.

This is all based on what the Messiah did: while we were still weak, at that very moment he died on behalf of the ungodly.

How 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!

For just as through the disobedience of one person many received the status of “sinner,” so through the obedience of one person many will receive the status of being “in the right.”

And that’s not all. We even celebrate in God, through our Lord Jesus the Messiah, through whom we have now received this reconciliation.
