Romans 5:12 - Because our mutual
grandfather, Adam, sinned, we now
sin too.
Romans 3:23 - We need to realize

Jesus Christ as the One who died in
our place, paying the punishment for
our sin on the cross; resurrected in
victory over death.

you saved through faith and not of
yourselves. It is a gift from God, not
