BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH
(R.L. Whiteside)
Romans 5
Verse 1: Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Or, literally, "Having been justified by faith, we have peace with God." Greek writers were more exact in the use of participles than we are. We would say, "Mounting a horse, he rode away;" but the Greeks would say, "Having mounted a horse, he rode away." The mounting preceded the riding. And in Paul's language the justification precedes peace with God.
