Peace with God Through Jesus Christ
Romans 5:1-11
Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand; and we boast in our hope of sharing the glory of God. Romans 5:1-2 NRSV
The peace-giving and reconciling work of Christ was working for us even when we were not working towards it.
