Romans 5:17-19 NLT

17 For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and his gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ.
18 Yes, Adam’s one sin brings condemnation for everyone, but Christ’s one act of righteousness brings a right relationship with God and new life for everyone.
19 Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous.

Because…
1. Our King’s decrees are law.
2. Once declared, they cannot be changed.
3. There is no limit to their effectiveness or influence.

2. I live triumphantly over sin and death.
3. I live every day in right relationship with God.
4. I live each day as a testament to His promised life.
