Romans 5:17-21
-
17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
-
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
-
19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
-
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
-
21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
