THEREFORE

ROMANS 5:1

I. JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PAST

1. A Settled Transaction [v. 1a, 6-10]

2. A Singular Triumph [v. 1, 6, 8-11, John 19:30, 1 Corinthians 15:57]

- When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

-But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

3. A  Spiritual Transformation [v. 1, 10-11, 2 Cor. 5:17]

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

II. PEACE FOR THE PRESENT

1. Peace with God [v. 1, 9-10, 8:7]

2. Peace of God [v. 1, Phil. 4:7, Col. 3:15

-And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

- And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

3. Peace from God [v. 1, 1:7, 2 Jn. 1:3]

Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

 

III. GLORY FOR THE FUTURE

1. A Glory Wrought in God [4:20, 5:2, 16:27]

2. A Glory Worthy of God [11:36, 15:7, 16:27]

3. A Glory Without End [6:4, 8:18, 9:23, 16:27]
