"And not as it was by
one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation,
but the free gift is of many offences unto justification." (Romans
5:16)
The single sin of Adam’s
disobedience became a curse for all humanity. Adam's one offense brought
condemnation upon us. However, through Christ—the Second Adam who came into the
world to remedy this—a way was opened for many offenses to be forgiven.
Furthermore, even those who
had not sinned in the same manner as Adam were overtaken by the penalty of his
sin. The Apostle Paul explains this: "Nevertheless death reigned from Adam
to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's
transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come." (Romans
5:14) Yes, the old Adam is a pattern of the One who was to come.
Adam’s sin subjected even
those who did not sin like him to punishment. But the grace of Christ releases
us from many sins. This is precisely what the Apostle Paul emphasizes in
today’s meditation verse: the free gift brings justification from many offenses.
The world faced judgment due to one sin, yet through the obedience of one Man,
many sins are forgiven. This is the grace that comes through our Lord Jesus
Christ.
Dearly beloved, today we
receive redemption through the blood of Christ, and through Him, our many sins
are forgiven. Unlike Adam, who sinned and hid in fear from God walking in the
Garden of Eden, we have no need to hide in fear. For Christ came into the world
to forgive and accept us; He eagerly longs for sinners to repent and return to
Him.
The grace of Christ forgives
numerous sins. Therefore, we are called to confess any sin to Him without
hesitation and repent. Let us come to Him with whatever sin we carry and seek
His forgiveness. Today’s meditation verse reminds us that the judgment resulting
from one man’s sin is not like the free gift of God. Indeed, the sentence of
condemnation through Adam cannot be compared to the abundance of Christ's
grace. Let us approach Him boldly and ask for forgiveness.
"If we confess our
sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9) Yes, the free gift of Christ
cleanses us from many offenses and leads us to justification.
