Romans 5:6-11 (HCSB)
Those Declared Righteous Are Reconciled
6 For while we were still helpless, at the appointed moment, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For rarely will someone die for a just person—though for a good person perhaps someone might even dare to die. 8 But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us! 9 Much more then, since we have now been declared righteous by His blood, we will be saved through Him from wrath. 10 For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, then how much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by His life! 11 And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ. We have now received this reconciliation through Him.
Lee Murphy
Do you doubt that God loves you? Well, in verse 6 we show our weakness, and in verse 8 we show that we are sinners, but also in verse 8 it states that “God shows His love for us”. So, even though we are weak sinners and ungodly, God shows His love for us through Christ dying for us.
