Peace With God
5 Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Romans 5:1-5

Peace With God
Our sins cause the wrath of God to be kindled against us. All of us have sinned and have fallen short of God's glory. Those sins justify anger. God had promised death to anyone who sinned against him. There is only one way to still that anger. The anger and the wrath of God is stopped by Jesus Christ and him alone. Thus we cannot go to God alone. We cannot approach him without Jesus advocating for us. But we do have an advocate with the Father, Jesus the righteous One. We have peace where there was once only wrath and death. And the sufferings we now have connect us to Jesus and his cross. We are being carried along in the midst of these present battles by the Holy Spirit with the knowledge that the war has been won by our Lord Jesus Christ. We are victorious with him. We have peace only with Jesus.
