New Testament Reading 2

A reading from the Letter of St Paul to the Romans 5: 5-11

Hope does not disappoint us,
because God's love has been poured into our hearts
through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us.
While we were still weak,
at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man-
-though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die.
But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners
Christ died for us.
Since, therefore, we are now justified by his blood,
much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.
For if while we were enemies
we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son,
much more, now that we are reconciled,
shall we be saved by his life.
Not only so, but we also rejoice in God
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
through whom we have now received our reconciliation.

This is the word of the Lord
