OK: let's see if I understand you.
Adam sinned: and the sin was so great, it "stained" the seed (every man) in him.
Jesus was righteous: so much so that all men by Him (His seed) are righteous.
I believe that is what you say
Rom 5, is saying, but please correct me.
What I see:
If we remain in Adam's (as his seed), we will do what Adam did: make ourselves
aprons to hide our sin. This also puts us
outside of Christ.
If we are in Christ, we abide in righteousness by Him. Being IN Christ puts the
Church outside of Adam; and we are left only with the propensity to sin: but not
a part of Adam's sin, which was dealt with at the cross!
