Romans 5:1–5
1 Therefore, since we are justified by faith, wef have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Through him we have obtained accessg to this grace in which we stand, and we* rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God. 3 More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
