8 but God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while[a] we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Therefore, by much more, because we[b] have been declared righteous now by his blood, we will be saved through him from the wrath. 10 For if, while we[c] were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, by much more, having been reconciled, we will be saved by his life.
