Context Readings

Death Came Through Adam But Life Comes Through Christ

16 And the gift is not as through one man who sinned, for indeed the judgment from one man was for condemnation, but the gift from many offenses is for righteousness. 17 For if, by the offense of the one man, death reigned through the one man, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ. 18 So then, as through an offense of one man was for condemnation for all men, so also through a righteousness of one man was for justification of life for all men.
