WHAT THE SCRIPTURE REALLY SAYS! PART 5

WHAT THE SCRIPTURE REALLY SAYS!

WHAT "YOUR" BIBLE SAYS!

Part 5 

"[For if] through the offense of ONE [MANY] be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by ONE MAN, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto [MANY]."  Romans 5:15

[For if] ... these two words in the sentence are important!

A conditional clause...

FOR IF it is true what happened through the offense of one many be dead ... it is equally true ... much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

And then the two words in the middle of the sentence:  MUCH MORE ...

If it is true that the offense was of ONE ~ and many be dead

Then, MUCH MORE the grace of God, and the gift by grace came by ONE MAN, Jesus Christ

MUCH MORE ~ More Powerfully So!  (elaborate later)

Notice:  It is a GIFT by GRACE

And hath abounded unto [MANY]

The same [MANY] in the first part of the verse ~ sentence is the same [MANY] in the last part of the verse.

(My emphasis on Scripture)
