The .v. Chapter. The power of fayeth, hope, and loue, and how death reigneth from Adam vnto Christe, by whom onelye we haue forgyuenes of synnes.

A    noteBecause therfore that we are iustifyed by fayeth05Q1427 we are at peace wyth God thorowe oure Lorde Iesus Christe by whom we haue a waye in thorowe fayeth vnto thys grace where in we stande ∧ reioye in hope of the prayse that shalbe geu&ebar; of God. note noteNether do we so only: but also we reioice in tribulacion. For we know that tribulati&obar; bryngeth pacience, pacience bringeth experience, experience bringeth hope. And hope maketh not ashamed, for þe; loue of God is sheed abroade in our hertes by the holye ghost, which he is geuen vnto vs.

&rhand; For when we were yet weake accordyng to the tyme: Christ died for vs whiche were vngodly. Yet scrace will anye man dye for a ryghtuouse man. Parauenture for a good man durst a man dye. &cross2; But God setteth out his loue þt; he hath to vs, B   seing þt; whil we wer yet sinners, Christ died for vs. Much more th&ebar; now (seing we are iustified in hys bloud) shall we be saued from wrath thorowe hym. note&rhand; For yf when we were enemyes, we were reconciled to God by the death of hys sonne muche more, seynge we are reconciled, we shall be preserued by his lyfe. Not only so, but we also ioy in god by the means of oure Lorde Iesus Christ, by whom we haue receiued the attonment.

&rhand; Wherfore as by one man synne entred into the worlde, and death by the means of synne: And so death went ouer all men, in so much that al men synned. For euen vnto the tyme of the lawe was synne in the worlde, but sinne was not regarded, as long as there was no lawe: neuerthelesse death reygned from Adam to Moyses, euen ouer them also that synned not, with lyke transgression as did Adam: whyche is the similytude of hym that is to come.

C   &rhand; But the gyfte is not lyke as the synne. noteFor yf thorowe the synne of one, manye be dead: muche more plentuous vpon manye was the grace of God and gyfte by grace: Which grace was geuen by one man Iesus Christe.

&rhand; And the gyfte is not ouer one that sinned. For damnacion came of one synne vnto condemnation but the gyfte came to iustify fr&obar; many synnes. For if by þe; synne of one death reygned by the meanes of one: muche more shall they whiche receyue aboundaunce of grace ∧ of the gyfte of ryghtuousnes reigne in life by the meanes of one (that is to saye) Iesus Christe.

D   ¶ Lykewyse th&ebar; as by the synne of one, condemnacion came on al men: euen so by the iustifiyng of one commeth the ryghtuousnes that bryngeth lyfe vpon al men. For as by one mans05Q1428 disobedience many became synners: so by the obedience of one, shall manye be made ryghtuouse.

&rhand; But the law05Q1429 in the meane tyme entred in, that sinne should encreace. Neuerthelater where abo&ubar;daunce of synne was, there was more plentuousnes of grace, that as synne had reygned vnto death, euen so myght grace raygne thorow rightuousnes vnto eternall lyfe, by the helpe of Iesus Christe. &cross3;
