  • Rom 5:12-21 : 12 The Amplification of Justification So then, just as sin entered the world through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all people because all sinned– 13 for before the law was given, sin was in the world, but there is no accounting for sin when there is no law. 14 Yet death reigned from Adam until Moses even over those who did not sin in the same way that Adam(who is a type of the coming one) transgressed. 15 But the gracious gift is not like the transgression. For if the many died through the transgression of the one man, how much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man Jesus Christ multiply to the many! 16 And the gift is not like the one who sinned. For judgment, resulting from the one transgression, led to condemnation, but the gracious gift from the many failures led to justification. 17 For if, by the transgression of the one man, death reigned through the one, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ! 18 Consequently, just as condemnation for all people came through one transgression, so too through the one righteous act came righteousness leading to life for all people. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of one man many will be made righteous. 20 Now the law came in so that the transgression may increase, but where sin increased, grace multiplied all the more, 21 so that just as sin reigned in death, so also grace will reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
  • 1 Cor 15:21-22 : 21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead also came through a man. 22 For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

    37And what you sow is not the body that is to be, but a bare seed– perhaps of wheat or something else.

    38But God gives it a body just as he planned, and to each of the seeds a body of its own.

    39All flesh is not the same: People have one flesh, animals have another, birds and fish another.

    40And there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. The glory of the heavenly body is one sort and the earthly another.

    41There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory.

    42It is the same with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable.

    43It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;

    44it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.

    45So also it is written,“The first man, Adam, became a living person”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

    46However, the spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and then the spiritual.

    47The first man is from the earth, made of dust; the second man is from heaven.
