18 Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. 19 For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous. 20 Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 5)
As a quick summary of yesterday's blog, the one man's actions affecting many is true of both Adam and Christ, but the result of Christ's passion is far more powerful. It's power is found in the grace of God - far more potent than sin, death, or any other power. Grace now reigns in the person of Jesus Christ, leading to eternal life. Totally amazing grace.
