Sermon Bible Commentary - Romans 5:1-11

Romans 5:1-11 Immediate Results of Justification. To be acquitted of guilt through the death of Jesus is the most elementary blessing which the gospel brings to our condemned race, shut up in its prison-house of wrath. But it cannot come alone. It opens a door of hope through which each reconciled sinner may look forward unto a new world of lovely blessings following in its train. Hope is the keyword of this section, therefore exultant hope of future glory; and the three ideas which... read more

DISCOURSE: 1840BENEFITS ARISING FROM A JUSTIFYING FAITHRomans 5:1-5. Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Romans 5:1-21

Shall we turn now in our Bibles to the fifth chapter of Romans.Since chapter 3 Paul has been talking about justification by faith. How that God has declared me innocent because of my faith in Jesus Christ. Believing that He took my sin and died in my place; He became my substitute. He took God's judgment for my sin. He bore it for me. By my believing in Him, God declares me innocent of all charges, justified by faith.In chapter 4 he illustrates from the Old Testament, from Abraham, the truth of... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Romans 5:1-21

Romans 5:1 . Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God. Faith in the atonement removes the guilt of sin, and makes us heirs of all the promised righteousness of God; the prodigals are brought home to their Father’s house with joy. Justification is never alone; all the graces follow in clusters, with privileges of the highest order. The apostle, still keeping the jews in his eye, seems to ask the grand question; What need then for christians so justified and ennobled to be... read more

Romans 5:3And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also.The Christian processI. Tribulation gives rise to patience, coming from a verb which signifies “to keep good under” (a burden, blows, etc.) , and might be rendered “endurance.”II. Endurance, in its turn, worketh experience--the state of a force or virtue which has stood trials.

Romans 5:4And patience experience.Patience working experienceThe benefit of trials is lost when we either “despise the chastening of the Lord,” or “faint when we are rebuked of Him.” It is only when they are borne with Christian “patience” that “experience” is their happy fruit. The word signifies properly “proof”: and there are various things proved to us by our trials, endured with patience.I. The love, care, faithfulness, and power of our father. He has assured us that “whom He loves He... read more

Romans 5:5And hope maketh not ashamed. Christian, hopeThere is no word more beautiful than “hope.” It is alight with the radiance of futurity; in it murmurs a prophetic music of good times coming. Its influence upon mankind it is impossible to over-estimate. As it has waxed or waned, society has risen or declined. The sinfulness of the first pair threatened life with a collapse; but in the first promise the day star of humanity arose. A watery deluge rolled around the world; and in the solitary... read more

5 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. Ver. 5. Hope maketh not ashamed ] As among men, many lie languishing at hope’s hospital, as he did at the pool of Bethesda,John 5:1-9; John 5:1-9 , and return as they did from the brooks of Tema, Job 6:17 . Or, as men go to a lottery with heads full of hopes, but return with hearts full of blanks. The Dutch have a proverb to this purpose, Sperare et expectare, multos... read more
