• He will have us to be with and as Christ in His own glory. He deals with us who believe as to past, present, and future, according to what our Lord Jesus deserves and His eternal redemption. If the righteousness be God's righteousness, not man's, if divine righteousness be the starting-point, no wonder that the grace of God is the ground in which we stand, and that the glory of God is the sole adequate hope, whether we consider the person or the work of the Savior. May we boast of it and Him! (“Notes on Romans 5:1-2” by W. Kelly)
• I stand as a present thing in that grace or favor, God’s blessed present favor resting on me, which is better than life. (“Romans 5:1-11” by J.N. Darby)
• {boast in hope} All my sins having been put away according to the requirements of God’s glory, and Christ being risen from the dead, having met all that glory, I rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. It is a full well-grounded hope of being in it, not a coming short of it. (“Romans 5:1-11” by J.N. Darby)
• Justification is my true state before God, by virtue of the work of Christ, of His death, and of resurrection. Faith, thus knowing God, is at peace with God; but this is a result, like the present enjoyment of the grace wherein we stand. (“Romans 5:1-11” by J.N. Darby)
• Such is the efficacy of this grace with regard to us; it is peace, grace or favor, glory. One would say, This is all we can have: the past, present, and future are provided for. (“Romans 5:1-11” by J.N. Darby)
• The glory of God is now the place of peace to the Christian—the home of the Christian—"and rejoice in hope of the glory of God" (Rom. 5:2). (“Hunt’s Sayings - 382” by R. Hunt)
• As to our past—we have been "justified" (vs. 1). As to the present—we "stand" in a position of "favor" with God (vs. 2a). As to the future—we have a "hope" (a deferred certainty) of being glorified (vs. 2b). (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• It is the same standing that Christ Himself has before God, for we are "accepted in the Beloved" (Eph. 1:6). Paul says that this new position (standing) which all believers are in, is entered upon "by faith" in the Lord Jesus Christ. (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• "Hope," in the sense that it is used in Scripture, is a deferred certainty. It is expectancy with assurance. (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)
• Now, by being justified by His grace, we have the hope of being glorified like Christ. It is a deferred certainty, viewed as a completed thing in the purpose and counsel of God: "Whom He justified, them He also glorified" (Rom. 8:30). (“The Great Results of Justification and Reconciliation: Romans 5:1-11” by B. Anstey)
