The Triumph of Faith
1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have5:1 Or let us have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand. And we rejoice5:2 Or exult; also in verses 3 and 11 in the hope of the glory of God.
3 Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.
