The Believers Possession of Divine Love (vv 5:5b-8)
When a person receives salvation through Jesus Christ, he enters a spiritual love relationship with God that lasts throughout all eternity.
As Paul makes clear in verse 8 a persons love of God does not refer to our love for God but to His love for us.
The most overwhelming truth of the Gospel is that God loved sinful, fallen, rebellious mankind, so much that he gave us His only son for salvation.
God even graciously imparts His love to us.
For those who accept His offer of salvation, He takes His indescribable and undeserved love and pours it out within the hearts of those who believe through His own holy spirit who He gives to them.
Here poured out refers to the lavish outpouring to the point of overflowing.
God does not give His love in measured drops but in immeasurable torrents.
The fact that God gives His Holy Spirit to indwell believers is itself a marvelous testimony to His love for us.
God will never indwell those whom He does not love.
It is only because of the indwelling Spirit that His children are able to truly love Him.
The Believers Certainty of Deliverance (vv 5:9-10)
The phrase “much more then” indicates that what follows is even more overwhelming and significant than what has been said before that statement.
In the light of the fact that we already have been justified Paul is saying we are assured of being saved from the wrath of God through Him, that is through Christ.
If the dying Savior reconciled us to God, surely the living savior can and will keep us reconciled.
The main point of this truth for believers is that our savior can and will keep us reconciled.
The thrust of this truth for believers is that our Savior not only delivered us from sin and its judgment, but also delivers us from uncertainty and doubt about that deliverance.
If God has already made sure our rescue from sin, death, and the future, how could our present spiritual life possibly be in jeopardy?
If Gods grace covers the sins even of His enemies, how much more does it cover the sins of His children?
The Believers Joy in God (v 5:11)
Why do we exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ who gave us access to Him?
Because from Him we received the reconciliation.
He gave it as a gift.
The abundant joy that God gives His children through the Lord Jesus Christ includes grateful joy in their salvation and simply in who God is.
We see these examples of the Joy we have in salvation in the Psalms
Our joy is not in the things of this world but in Christ.
