Romans 5:15 Weymouth “But God's free gift immeasurably outweighs the transgression. For if through the transgression of the one individual the mass of mankind have died, infinitely greater is the generosity with which God's grace, and the gift given in His grace which found expression in the one man Jesus Christ, have been bestowed on the mass of mankind.”
It takes a revelation of the activity and consequence of the fall of the 1st Adam to truly understand the import of the obedience and gift of righteousness of the 2nd & Last Adam.
Condemnation and separation from God came into the world because of the disobedience of the 1st Adam.
No other sinful act no matter how sordid or debasing was of greater consequence than that first act of treason from the 1st Adam which brought sin into the world.
In order words, it cant be worse than what it already was.
It is only human nature that grades acts of sin from bizarre to acceptable. Before God, they are all fruits of the FALL.
It is in the same vein and of even greater consequence that the obedience of the 2nd and Last Adam, Jesus Christ has brought righteousness and justification to the world.
The Adam you choose to identify with determines your reality.
For the New Creation who is one with Christ and bears His identity, there’s no separation with the Father inspite of how you feel at any given moment.
You are loved, accepted and BLESSED.
Glory!
