Motivated Unto Righteous Living
In Romans 5:12 God tells us how we are all related to the first man, Adam:
“Wherefore, as by one man [Adam] sin entered into the world, and death by sin… so death passed upon all men…”
This verse clearly indicates that every child born into the world since Adam has partaken of Adam’s sinful nature that is passed on as a sort of viral infection in the flesh of every human.
