## Romans 5:22 in Context (Verses 19–21 KJV)
 
 [19 ](/kjv/romans/5/19) For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/romans/5/20) Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
 
 [21 ](/kjv/romans/5/21) That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
 
[Romans 4](/kjv/romans/4) [Romans 6](/kjv/romans/6)
