Romans 5 — Context

8

But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.

9

Much more, if we now have righteousness by his blood, will salvation from the wrath of God come to us through him.

10

For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;

11

And not only so, but we have joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we are now at peace with God.

12

For this reason, as through one man sin came into the world, and death because of sin, and so death came to all men, because all have done evil:

13

Because, till the law came, sin was in existence, but sin is not put to the account of anyone when there is no law to be broken.

14

But still death had power from Adam till Moses, even over those who had not done wrong like Adam, who is a picture of him who was to come.
