DVD LESSON
Romans 5:15-21 (Lesson 8) “Grace”
In session eight Paul tells us how broad and how deep God’s love is for us. Paul shows that sin no longer reigns in us, but grace. And because of His grace, we will reign with Him forevermore.
CHAPTER 5
15 But the free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
16 The gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned; for on the one hand the judgment arose from one transgression resulting in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift arose from many transgressions resulting in justification.
17 For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.
18 So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.
19 For as through the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.
20 The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,
21 So that, as sin reigned in death, even so grace would reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
