G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Romans 5:1-21

The apostle now dealt with the values of justification. The value to the individual is a threefold blessing. This nature as to cause the heart to rejoice. The apostle now showed the difference between the first and second man, the first and last Adam, in their race headship and the results produced by each. The whole argument is based on the literal accuracy of the account of the fall of man chronicled in Genesis, the apostle making no fewer than nine references thereto in so short a passage.... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Romans 5:1-5

Much More the Grace of God Romans 5:1-5 , Romans 5:15-21 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We have before us today portions of Romans for our study. The Epistle of Paul to the Romans carries with it one of God's supreme messages for saints. Three great facts stand before us: (1) The fact of sin, with its universality. (2) The fact of redemption, through the Calvary work of Christ, where grace is supreme. (3) The fact of the victorious life in Christ Jesus, through the Spirit. A fourth message that stands... read more

The Great Salvation Romans 5:1-11 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. God's story of sin. The fifth chapter of Romans is God's great climactic of the theme of redemption. Earlier chapters of the Book of Romans set forth the story of sin in all its heinousness. The Gentile world is declared unto sin. The Jewish world is then set forth under the same flaring headlines. Following is a conclusion in chapter 3 that "all have sinned" and every mouth is stopped. The whole world stands guilty before God. God... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Romans 5:1-5

PRESENT PRIVILEGES OF THE JUSTIFIED‘Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.… 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.’ Romans 5:1-Deuteronomy : These five verses describe the present life of the justified believer, and teach the new position of those who are justified through faith. In the five verses there are five blessings described. Let us consider each of... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:1-11

The Direct Consequence Of Our Being Accounted as Righteous Through Faith (5:1-11). Paul now outlines some of the consequences of our being ‘accounted as righteous’ through faith. These he represents as follows: 1) We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1). 2) We have access by faith into the grace in which we now stand (Romans 5:2). 3) We rejoice in the hope of the glory of God (Romans 5:2). 4) We rejoice in tribulation because of what we know it will work within us... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:1-21

Salvation To The Uttermost (5:1-8:39). The depths of our sin having been revealed in Romans 1:17 to Romans 3:23, and Jesus Christ’s activity, (His activity in bringing about our salvation through the cross by means of the reckoning to us of His righteousness by faith), having been made known in Romans 3:24 to Romans 4:25, Paul now sets about demonstrating the consequences of this for all true believers (Romans 5:1 to Romans 8:39). He wants us immediately to recognise that being ‘accounted as... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:3

‘And not only so, but we also rejoice in our tribulations,’ But what is the road that leads to the glory of God? It is the road of tribulations. It is because of the joy that is set before us that we endure what comes before it. Just as, for Christ, prior to the resurrection there came the cross, so also for us, prior to glory, will come tribulation. And it because these are closely connected that we also rejoice in tribulation, for that tribulation is the prerequisite to enjoying His glory. We... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:3-4

Paul now continues to describe the process by which God shapes our lives. For ‘tribulation works steadfastness, and steadfastness brings us to a place of refined purity (approval after testing), and that refined purity (approval after testing) strengthens our hope’, both hope for the future which will enable us to further please God (as with Abraham - Romans 4:18-22), and hope in eternity when we will enjoy and experience the gory of God. ‘Knowing that tribulation works steadfastness.’ For to... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:1-5

Romans 5:1-Deuteronomy : . The Fruits of Justifying Faith. Romans 5:1-Exodus : a . “ Since then we have been justified,” etc., recapitulates Romans 3:22 to Romans 4:25. The apodosis (according to the best-attested reading, RV) is hortatory: “ Let us abide in peace with God,” etc.; the Greek tense implies a continued state, as in Acts 9:31 (RV). The qualifying clause, “ through whom indeed we have got our introduction,” etc., warrants a steady peace with God: led by Christ’ s hand into the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 5:3

We glory in tribulations also; as old soldiers do in their scars of honour: see Galatians 6:17; 2 Corinthians 12:9-11. Believers do not only glory in their future happiness, but in their present sufferings and afflictions: yet not so much in affliction itself, as in the issue and fruitful effects thereof, of which he speaks in what follows. Knowing, finding by experience, that tribulation worketh patience; not as if affliction of itself and in its own nature did this, for in many it hath a... read more
