Paul asks why should we not be
happy in the midst of tribulations.
In human affairs it sometimes hap
pens that a brave person will lay,
down his life for naother. But when
he does this he wants to know if
the man for whom he makes the
sacrifice was worhty of it.

life for the worthy but for the un
worthy also. While we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us. We get
three lessons in verses 6 to 8. The
first is that shows his love for us
by sending his son to earth to be
our Saviour, that the only reason
able thing to do is to yield our
selves to him and accept his gift
