Romans 5:6

Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;

and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope;

and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a good person someone would even dare to die.

But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God’s wrath through him.
