By the Righteousness of One came Justification of Life !
Rom 5:18
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
That the Obedience of Christ alone, His Righteousness here consist in both His Active and Passive Obedience, and for all whom He represented when He died, the sentence of Justification was passed, Justification of Life. It came upon them, apart from their faith, their repentance, or anything they did.
The word Justification is the greek word dikaiósis:
acquittal, justifying, justification, a process of absolution.
Absolution means:
a freeing from blame or guilt; release from consequences, obligations, or penalties.
Just as by adam's one act or offence, it resulted in condemnation of all men he represented, that was apart from their own act of disobedience personally, so it is with Christ's One act of Righteousness results in Justification of Life for all He represented apart from their own acts of obedience.
This scripture teaches Justification for all whom Christ died before their obedience of Faith.
