14. Death in Adam, Life in Christ

    (Genesis 3:1–7)

15. 12UEBSo then, as through one man sin entered into the world, in this way death entered through sin. And death spread to all people, because all sinned.BSBBSB: Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned.
16. 13UEBFor until the law, sin was in the world, but there is no accounting for sin when there is no law.BSBBSB: For sin was in the world before the law was given; but sin is not taken into account when there is no law.

For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!
19. 16UEBFor the gift is not like the outcome of that one man's sin. The judgment followed one trespass and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification.BSBBSB: Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification.
20. 17UEBFor if, by the trespass of the one, death ruled through the one, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.BSBBSB: For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
21. 18UEBSo then, by one trespass condemnation came to all people, so also one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all people.BSBBSB: So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation for all men, so also one act of righteousness brought justification and life for all men.
22. 19UEBFor as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one will the many be made righteous.BSBBSB: For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
23. 20UEBBut the law came in to increase the trespass. But where sin abounded, grace abounded even more.BSBBSB: The law came in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
24. 21UEBThis happened so that, as sin ruled in death, even so grace might rule through righteousness for everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord.BSBBSB: so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
