Life is our Victory in Jesus

Mar 1, 2020    Rev. Dean Davenport    Romans 5:12-19

Death was not part of God’s original plan. Death is a punishment on creation for the fall into sin. The sin that creeps into every part of our lives. Sin is not static only touching one person or part of life. It touches all people and all parts of creation. God was not content to let sin rule. And although death is part of our story it does not have the final say. In Adam we and all creation are connected to death. In Jesus we and all creation are connected to new life. Jesus victory over death on the cross means we have victory over death in Him.
The sermon is interspersed with the hymn "All Mankind Fell in Adam's Fall" LSB 562
