Death in Adam, Life in Christ
- Romans 5:12-21
- Brock Graham
Only two options can be true of our lives. We are either still in Adam or we are now in Christ. We are either still in sin or have been made righteous by Christ. We are either dead in that sin or have been made alive in Christ. In this section of Romans, Paul brings to bear the cancerous reality that in Adam sin has spread, infecting all of us, leaving all of us under its terminal death sentence. But a Greater Adam has come...and this Greater Adam has reversed the curse. And once we are in Him we move from sin to righteousness, from bondage to grace, from death to life. Are you still in Adam, in your sin, and subject to death-OR- are you in Christ, made righteous, enjoying his everlasting life?
