Notice the progression in Romans 5:12: sin entered the world through Adam, death follows sin, death comes to all people, all people sin because they inherit sin from Adam. Because “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23), we need a perfect, sinless sacrifice to wash away our sin, something we are powerless to do on our own. Thankfully, Jesus Christ is the Savior from sin! Our sin has been crucified on the cross of Jesus, and now “in Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace” (Ephesians 1:7).
Tafakari vile inavyoendelezwa katika Warumi 5:12: dhambi iliingia duniani kupitia kwa Adamu, kifo kifuata dhambi, mauti huja kwa watu wote, watu wote hutenda dhambi kwa sababu ya kurithi dhambi ya Adamu. Kwa sababu "wote wamefanya dhambi na kupungukiwa na utukufu wa Mungu" (Warumi 3:23), tunahitaji sadaka kamili, na isiyo ya dhambi kwa uosho wa dhambi zetu, jambo ambalo hatuna nguvu ya kufanya sisi wenyewe. Shukrani nyingi, Yesu Kristo ni Mwokozi wa dhambi! Dhambi zetu zimesulubiwa juu ya msalaba wa Yesu, na sasa "katika Yeye huyo kwa damu yake tuano ukombozi wetu, masamaha ya dhambi, sawaswa na wingi wa neema yake" (Waefeso 1:7).
