In the book of Romans Paul makes it clear that he is not ashamed of the gospel (Romans 1:16) and that God has a very pure love for us because, “While we were still sinners Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).  He teaches us that it is by the blood of Jesus we are justified and saved from the wrath of God (Romans 5:9).  Paul also makes it clear that it is not our place to repay evil for evil and that God is the one who will judge those that have sinned.  He teaches us that salvation is a free gift that is given to us through Christ and was accomplished through His sacrifice on the cross. Romans 5:18 says, “Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.”. It’s great to know that those that believe in Jesus are not condemned to hell but given eternal life through Christ. Amen
