^Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: ^by v/hom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. ^^nd. not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience ; %nd patience, experience ; and experience, hope : ^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. ^por when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. ^For scarcely for a righteous man will one die : yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. ®But God comraendeth his love towards us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. ^Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved frora wrath through him. ^°For if, when we were enemies, we were recon- ciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. "And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
