Chapter 5 Peace and Joy 1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, weOr let us have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,2through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And weOr let us rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.3Not only so, but weOr let us also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;4perseverance, character; and character, hope.5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.9Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!10For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!11Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
