What It Means To Be Acceptable to God

Romans 5:1-8
1. By faith we have been made acceptable to God. And now, because of our Lord Jesus Christ, we live at peace with God.
2.
Christ has also introduced us to God's undeserved kindness on which we take our stand. So we are happy, as we look forward to sharing in the glory of God.
3.
But that's not all! We gladly suffer, because we know that suffering helps us to endure.
4.
And endurance builds character, which gives us a hope
5.
that will never disappoint us. All of this happens because God has given us the Holy Spirit, who fills our hearts with his love.
6.
Christ died for us at a time when we were helpless and sinful.
7.
No one is really willing to die for an honest person, though someone might be willing to die for a truly good person.
8.
But God showed how much he loved us by having Christ die for us, even though we were sinful.

Happy New Year & God bless you all

Hi Sarah,
What a wonderful Christian blog this is. It's a veritable rest stop for the weary Christian pilgrim as he struggles to keep standing amidst all the trials and challenges that he face in keeping faith with the Lord. May the Lord bless this blog and make it an oasis of peace and strengthening for the weary souls. God bless you more for this laudable effort for the Lord. Don't worry, in due time people will flock to his blog for their edification and for the glory of God. God bless and have a wonderful and blessed day in the US.
