SIN ENTERED THE WORLD THROUGH ONE MAN

July 7 - Start Your Day Right Devotion

Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way, death came to all men, because all sinned

Sin Entered The World Through One Man

​The first man, Adam, gave in to temptation and disobeyed God’s direct command. Therefore, sin, or rebellion against God, as an active principle or power gained entrance into the human race (Romans 5:17, 19; Genesis 3; 1 Corinthians 15:21-22).

1. Two results followed: (a) Sin and corruption entered Adam’s heart and life and came part of his being. (b) Adam then passed on sin into the life-stream of the human race, corrupting all people from then on. All humans are now born into the world with an impulse and pull toward sin and evil; it is now part of our nature (Romans 5:19; 1:21; 7:24; Genesis 6:5, 12; 8:21; Psalms 14:1-3; Jeremiah 17:9; Mark 7:21-22; 1 Corinthians 2:14; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 2:1-3; Colossians 1:21; 1 John 5:19).
2. Paul does not explain exactly how Adam’s sin is passed on to his descendants. Nor does he say that all people were present in Adam and that somehow, we all participated in his sin and inherited his guilt. Nowhere does Paul say that Adam was the representative head of his descendants (the human race) and that his sin was charged to all humanity. The fact is that all people follow their own sinful desires and go their own God-defying way. As a result, we all are guilty before God because of our own personal sin. The only teaching supported by the Bible is that men and women inherit a moral corruption and a strong pull toward sin and evil (Romans 6:1).
3. Death entered the world through sin, and now all people are subject to death “because all sinned” (Romans 5:12; 3:23; Genesis 2:17; 3:19). Both the immediate and final consequence of Adam’s original sin was spiritual death, which is separation from God.
4. Only because God Graciously provides spiritual salvation through Christ’s sacrifice can people escape the final consequences of sin and be restored to a right relationship with God.
