Episode Synopsis
8-31-25 Biblical-Literacy
Mark continued in the study of Romans with a focus on Chapter 5:12-15. He began by sharing that
Paul who had a pastoral heart wrote to help us understand Jesus’ teachings and the inspiration of
the Scriptures. With shovel in hand, Mark proceeded to dig deep in the few verses:
1. Sin's universal entry & reign (verse 12)
Through one man, sin came into the world
Sin is outside of God
Paul personifies sin for our understanding
Death entered the world through sin
2. Reign of death before the Law (verse 13 -14)
Ignorance is no excuse
Still outside the nature of God
3. Greater grace (verse 15)
Where grace is greater than the trespass - the cross
In Christ we can live
Points for home
Understand reality
Marvel at grace
Reject despair and pride
Listen to Mark teach the origin of sin as a universal contamination. One sin led to death, and one
death led to life
