Do you know what’s in the contract?
Romans 5
Peace with God, v1. Not a change of feelings or an inward peace but a change in God’s relationship to us. There is no need to question God’s views and thoughts about us. It’s okay. How good is that?!
Access to God, v2. Jesus has introduced us to God. God is never distant, we are. How good is that?!
A hope, v2. There is no doubt on heaven, it is not a prospect, it is a certainty. How good is that?!
Development of character, v3-4. The word character is too difficult a word to translate. Paul only uses it 7 times it means a quality by having stood the test. You will go through problems (the test) it is part of the contract. How good is that?!
Love, v5-8. What can I say? God really loves you! How good is that?!
No fear of God’s anger, v9-10. God will not vent His anger on you, ever. how good is that?!
Reconciliation with God, v11. The power of sin which creates a barrier between God and man is broken down by Christ’s work on the cross. How good is that?!
There is one who doesn’t want you to know the contract. But you do.
How good is that?!
