Romans 5:9 Context
7For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peraduenture for a good man, some would euen dare to dye. 8But God commendeth his loue towards vs, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for vs. 9Much more then being now iustified by his blood, we shalbe saued from wrath through him. 10For if when wee were enemies, we were reconciled to God, by the death of his sonne: much more being reconciled, we shalbe saued by his life. 11And not onely so, but wee also ioy in God, through our Lorde Iesus Christ, by whom we haue now receiued the atonement.

Wesley's Notes for Romans 5:9
5:9 By his blood - By his bloodshedding. We shall be saved from wrath through him - That is, from all the effects of the wrath of God. But is there then wrath in God? Is not wrath a human passion? And how can this human passion be in God? We may answer this by another question: Is not love a human passion? And how can this human passion be in God? But to answer directly: wrath in man, and so love in man, is a human passion. But wrath in God is not a human passion; nor is love, as it is in God. Therefore the inspired writers ascribe both the one and the other to God only in an analogical sense.
People's Bible Notes for Romans 5:9
Ro 5:9 Much more then. The argument is: If while "we were yet sinners" (Ro 5:8), God loved us so well that Christ died for us, much more now shall we, being now justified, freed from sin, by his blood, be saved from the displeasure of God. By his blood. By dying for us. The keynote is "Christ died for us".
