Romans 5:1-11

“Therefore,” the opening word in Romans 5:1, and here is where we are reminding of the  message of God’s plan for reconciling humanity with God’s self and with one another.

In the midst of our suffering and human alienation, the church at every age is called upon to count on God’s love, the love that was shown before we’re even forgiven of our sins, and now we have come to experience that love. The call to ministry has been emphasized, but the call to love has suffered and is urgently needed in these unusual circumstances.
