Episode Title: How to Really Live
πŸ“– Bible Passage: Romans 5:12 –21
🎧 Series: The Bible Project Daily Podcast – Romans

Episode Summary:
Are you just existingβ€”or truly living?

In this episode, we explore one of Paul’s most theologically rich passages in the book of Romans. Romans 5:12 –21 presents a dramatic contrast between two representatives of humanity: Adam and Christ. Through Adam came sin, death, and condemnation. But through Jesus Christ comes grace, righteousness, and life.

We wrestle with how Adam’s sin affects us allβ€”and how Jesus’ obedience opens the way to real life, not just survival. Whether you’re curious about theological views on inherited sin, or longing to understand how the gospel can bring hope and transformation to your life, this episode is for you.

Key Themes:

  • The contrast between Adam and Christ
  • The meaning of β€œbecause all sinned”
  • Imputed sin, inherited guilt, and personal responsibility
  • The powerful promise of β€œjustification of life”
  • What it means to β€œreign in life” through Christ

Main Takeaway:
We don’t have to stay in Adam, trapped by sin and death. In Christ, we’re offered a new identityβ€”marked by grace, righteousness, and true, abundant life.
