world.”
1 John 2:2
“Christ is the sacrifice that takes away our sins (the Christians) and the sins of all the world's
people.”
1 John 2:2 Contemporary English Version

(the Christians), and not for ours alone but also for [the sins of] the
whole world.”

place in death, thereby redeeming Adam AND all his offspring-the human
race-from death.
“For Christ also has once died for sins; the just (Jesus) for the
unjust (Adam), that he might bring us to God.”
1 Peter 3:18
“By one man (Adam) sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and
so death passed upon all men. Therefore, as by the offense of one (Adam) judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by
the righteousness of one (Jesus) the free gift came upon all men unto
justification of life.”
Romans 5:12, 18

tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those
