What does Romans 5 6 11 means?
Romans 5:1–11 describes the amazing benefits that come with being declared righteous before God by faith in Christ's death for our sin. God has made peace with us. We stand in His grace, and we rejoice in the sure hope that we will share in His glory. Our suffering brings growth, which leads to even more potent hope.
For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Praying with Paul: 'My Need'
Thank you, dear Father, that while we were helpless, Christ our Savior died for the ungodly. You showed your love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ your Son died for us. Since therefore we are justified by Christ's blood, much more shall we be saved by him from your wrath!
Theme: If God loved us so much while we were His enemies, how much more can we trust in that love now that we are reconciled to Him.
Romans 5:6–8 Displays God's Love for Us
God demonstrates his love for us by Jesus doing the unthinkable for us. While we were weak, while we were ungodly, while we were still sinners. Those are the descriptions of us in this passage. Weak, ungodly sinners, rebels against God, having transgressed the law of God.
Romans 5 begins with a powerful, joyful revelation of all that comes with being justified in God's eyes by our faith in Christ. We have peace with God. We stand in God's grace. We have hope for eternal glory and meaning in our current suffering.
ESV More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. NIV Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
Sermon Description
In this sermon on Romans 5:10–11, Paul has already confirmed that salvation is assured in Christ Jesus and so this means the Christian should have joy in Christ Jesus and what He has done. Christians should glory both in their salvation and in God as the giver of salvation.
Romans 5 also tells us that when you have faith in Jesus Christ, you also have an access to God. You are no more blocked out from His presence, but you have a straight through passage into the holy presence of God. The Bible also tells us that if you believe in Jesus Christ, you can rejoice in the hope of glory.
In Romans 5:1–11 Paul offers more encouragement by reminding the Romans that through Christ we have already “gained access” to God's “grace in which we stand” (Rom. 5:2). Grace signifies God's life-giving power that raised Jesus from the dead.
What does Romans 5 10 and 11 mean?
Walking by faith delivers us from the ongoing power of sin through the resurrection power of Jesus. Verse 11 explains that it is an occasion for rejoicing because we are delivered, or saved, from so much. We are delivered from being enemies of God when God decides we are righteous in His sight by faith (v 10).
5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. 6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
Hebrew 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
Romans 6 tells us how to access, or experience, the power, favor, and blessings of God, which are freely available to us because of what Jesus did on the cross. It is the most practical chapter in the Bible on walking in victory over sin.
We are raised to a new spiritual life. In fact, by faith in Christ, we become so closely connected to Him that this particular spiritual death is a death to sin itself. The reason we are not slaves to sin any longer is because our old self was crucified. Dead men are freed from their old masters.
Romans 5:5-6 KJV
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. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
Yet, Romans 5:1–11 teaches us about how trials in life function for those who have peace with God. Our suffering is actually productive to produce endurance, character, and then hope. In other words, peace with God doesn't mean that we have an altogether peaceful life. Life may be filled with even very great suffering.
Romans 5 fleshes out what it means to be justified and the blessings associated with it. We have peace with God, access to God, and hope and perseverance amid suffering. At the core, we have a new life in Christ Jesus with the Holy Spirit as our guide and comfort.
Adam's act has brought the crushing weight of sin into the world, and because all sin (Romans 5:12), all of us are under condemnation. But Jesus brought something else into the world that is greater than Adam's act of disobedience. Jesus' obedience brought justification into the world.
Romans 6:11 In-Context
10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. 11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires.
What is the verse 5 to 11 in Romans 5?
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
The Bible tells us that salvation has nothing to do with us. Salvation has nothing to do with our good works; our kind deeds or our generous nature.
The radical affirmation of Romans 5:1 (and Romans 8:1) is that our full and complete acceptance with God comes fully through faith, and not on our ability to fully see the depth of our sin in all respects which, this side of glory, is probably not fully possible.
Romans 5 is the fifth chapter of the Epistle to the Romans in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It is authored by Paul the Apostle, while he was in Corinth in the mid-50s AD, with the help of an amanuensis (secretary), Tertius, who adds his own greeting in Romans 16:22.
We are not to question God's plan for us, we are to trust it. We should not question God's commandments; we should obey them. And when it comes to our faith, we should not be concerned with the “why” as much as we should be concerned about the “what.”
