18 Therefore, as through [a]one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through (A)one[b] Man’s righteous act the free gift came (B)to all men, resulting in justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by (C)one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

20 Moreover (D)the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace (E)abounded much more, 21 so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Dead to Sin, Alive to God

What shall we say then? (F)Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who (G)died to sin live any longer in it?
