Romans 5:1-5
Worldwide English (New Testament)
5 We are made good people and put right with God when we believe in Jesus Christ. So now we have peace with God because of what our Lord Jesus Christ did.
2 Because we believe, Christ has brought us to the place where God can do us good. We are in that place now. We are very happy because we have the hope that we shall see God's greatness.
3 And not only is that true, but we are very happy in our troubles, because we know that trouble makes us stronger.
4 When we are strong to take trouble, we prove that we believe. When we prove that we believe, we have hope.
5 We will not be disappointed by this hope. God has given us the Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit has put God's love in our hearts.
