Jesus' Blood is More Powerful than the Sin of Adam

The Weymouth translates Romans 5:18-19 very nicely:

"It follows then that just as the result of a single transgression is a condemnation which extends to the whole race, so also the result of a single decree of righteousness is a life-giving acquittal which extends to the whole race. For as through the disobedience of the one individual the mass of mankind were constituted sinners, so also through the obedience of the One the mass of mankind will be constituted righteous." (Romans 5:18-19)

In case anyone misunderstand the extent of Christ's redemption Paul makes it very clear in verse 20:

"Where sin abounded, grace abounded MUCH MORE." (Ro.5:20)
