The Blessings of Being Justified
Allows us to have:
Peace with God
(Rom 5:1 KJV)
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace
with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
We have access into His grace
(Rom 5:2 KJV)
By whom also we have access by faith into
this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the
glory of God.
We have assurance because we KNOW that God is going to
work it all out.
(Rom 5:3 KJV)
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations
also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
(Rom 5:4 KJV)
And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
H.S. - Indwelling by God in us
(Rom 5:5 KJV)
And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of
God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which
is given unto us.
We are preserved by God
(Rom 5:6 KJV)
For when we were yet without strength, in due time
Christ died for the ungodly.
(Rom 5:7 KJV)
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet
peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
(Rom 5:8 KJV)
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that,
while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
(Rom 5:9 KJV)
Much more then, being now justified by his blood,
we shall be saved from wrath through him.
(Rom 5:10 KJV)
For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to
God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled,
we shall be saved by his life.
(Rom 5:11 KJV)
And not only so, but we also joy in God through our
Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the
atonement.
