Sin » How sin entered into the world
Therefore, as by one man sin came into the world, and death by sin; and thus death came upon all men, in that all sinned; (for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed, there being no law; but death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even on those who did not sin after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the type of him who is to come. read more.
But not as was the transgression, even so is the free gift: for if by the transgression of one many died, how much more by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, did the grace of God and the gift abound unto many! And not as by the one having sinned, is the free gift; for indeed, judgment was from one unto condemnation, but the free gift is from many transgressions unto justification. For if by the transgression of one death reigned through one; how much more shall those receiving the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Christ Jesus!) Therefore then, as by the transgression of one, judgment came to all men to condemnation; so also through the righteousness of one, the free gift came on all men unto the justification of life: for as by the disobedience of one man many were made sinners, so also by the obedience of one man shall many be made righteous. But the law came, that the transgression might abound; but where sin did abound, there did grace superabound: in order that as sin reigned through death, so may grace reign also through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruit of them that slept. For since death was through a man, the resurrection of the dead is also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so truly in Christ shall all be made alive. read more.
But each one in his own rank: Christ the first-fruit; then they who are Christ's, at His coming: then the end, when he may deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father, when he may destroy all government, all authority and power. For it behooves him to reign until he may put all enemies under his feet. Death the last enemy is destroyed. For, he has subordinated all things beneath his feet. But when he may say, that all things have been subordinated, it is evident that the One having subordinated all things to him is excepted. But when he may subordinate all things to him, then the Son himself will also be subordinated to him who hath subordinated all things to Himself, in order that God may be all things in all.
