For God Shows His Love For Us In That Christ Died To Reconcile And Save Us
6 For while we were still being weak, yet at the right-time, Christ died for ungodly ones. 7 For one will rarely[a] die for a righteous person; for[b] perhaps someone may even dare to die for the good person. 8 But God demonstrates[c] His own love for us because while we were still being sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Therefore by much more, having now been declared-righteous by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath through Him. 10 For if while being enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, by much more having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
Our Boast Is In God Through Jesus Christ
11 And not only this, but we are also boasting in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through Whom we now received the reconciliation.
