For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
As I memorized this, the differences between the two opposites really stuck out.
"By one man's disobedience many were made sinners" This is a reflection of something that happened in the past to affect all of human nature.
"So by the obedience of one, shall many be made righteous." This is a reflection of the present and the future - "shall many be made righteous." The saving power of Jesus' blood is still in effect today! Many are still being made righteous because of the obedience of Jesus Christ.
Praise the Lord for His salvation!!!!

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (Psalm 19:14)
