3And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

Commentary
Romans 5 is a powerful chapter that speaks to the power of faith and grace. Paul begins by reminding us that we have been justified by faith, and that this justification brings us peace with God. He then goes on to explain that this peace is made possible through the death of Jesus Christ, who died for our sins. This death brings us hope and assurance that we can be reconciled to God.
