"But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through
one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free
gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.
And the free gift is not like the result of that one man's sin. For
the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but
the free gift following many trespasses brought justification. For if,
because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man,
much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the
free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ."
If one man's sin is able to bring death to many, then the death of one man,
Jesus Christ, brings life to many. How much sweeter is the grace of God,
knowing that we died because of the inheritance of one man's sin. This tells
us just how much joy this death of Jesus Christ should bring in us. I love this
verse with the song Joy by Pages CXVI.
