NEW THOUGHT PATTERN

Because the mind of the flesh

 with its carnal thoughts and

purposes is hostile to God,

for it does not submit itself

to God’s Law, indeed it cannot.

So then those who are living

the life of the flesh, catering

AMAZING CHANGE

Well then, as one man’s trespass (Adam’s

sin and falling away) led to condemnation

for all mankind, so one Man’s ( Jesus Christ’s)

righteousness leads to acquittal and right

standing with God and life for all.

For just as by one man’s disobedience

many were considered sinners,

so by one Man’s obedience many will

be considered righteous ( made acceptable

to God, brought into right standing with Him).

( Romans 5.18 and 19).

Consider these points:

1) Adam’s disobedience and sin brought 

condemnation and death to all humanity.

2) Jesus Christ’s righteousness and His

obedience unto death on the cross by

shedding His most precious blood,

brought salvation, right standing

and eternal life.
