Will Hunsaker Season 7 Episode 2

For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 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: 6-12

Paul introduces the concept of reconciliation. The depth of God's love, demonstrating it through Christ's sacrifice for humanity while still in a state of sin and rebellion against God. 

This passage highlights the contrast between death through Adam's sin and life through Christ's atonement, restoring relationship between God and man. 

This is a wonderful gift.
