PEACE Romans 5:1-2

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. 

Therefore, since we have been justified 
Romans 4:25  He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

through faith 
Romans 3:28  For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

we have peace with God 
Luke 2:14  "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to those on whom his favor rests."

through our Lord Jesus Christ 
Romans 5:10  For if, while we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!

through whom we have gained access by faith 
Ephesians 2:18  For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
Ephesians 3:12-13  ... remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

into this grace in which we now stand 
1 Corinthians 15:1  Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand.

And we boast in the hope of the glory of God 
Hebrews 3:6  But Christ is faithful as the Son over God's house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.
Hebrews 6:18-19a  God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.
