Rom. 5:12‑21• 12On this account as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death, and thus death passed unto all men, for that all sinned:
 13(for until law sin was in [the] world, but no sin is put to account when there is no law;
 14but death reigned from Adam till Moses even over those that had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is a figure of the coming [one].
 15But [shall] not, as the offence, so also [be] the free gift? for if by the offence of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man Jesus Christ abound unto the many.
 16And [shall] not, as by one having sinned, [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one unto condemnation, but the free gift [was] of many offences unto justification.
 17For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much more they that receive the abundance of the grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by the one Jesus Christ:)
 18So then as by one offence [it was] toward all men for condemnation, so also by one accomplished righteousness toward all men for justification of life.
 19For as by the disobedience of the one man the many were constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many shall be constituted righteous.
 20But law came in by the way, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded, grace over-abounded
 21that, as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness unto life eternal by Jesus Christ our Lord. (Rom. 5:12‑21)

• Sin in this 15th verse is clearly sin in the act: for other scriptures, such, for instance as Rom. 7:7, show us that lust itself is sin in the nature. Only let sin in the nature conceive, and sin in the act is brought forth. (“James 1” by F.B. Hole)
