"After the similitude" here is after the manner of Adam.... There are many sins , anything against Love is a sin......take it from there. It is impossible not to sin, especially after hearing what Jesus has taught us about even wanting something in your mind being a sin, coveting.......
Adam was given a direct order fromthe Mouth of ur Father and He was persuaded by the woman, Eve, to disobey Him.....Unless God has spoken to you an dyou have disobeyed Him, you have not sinned after the similitud ofAdam.......

Romans 5:14 King James Version (KJV)
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
Now... I know people are ready with their pitchforks, anticipating an argument for sinless perfectionism, but I am not making that argument. This verse just caught my eye, saying that some people didn't sin in the likeness of Adam's sin.
Am I reading that correctly, that some people didn't sin, or is it saying they didn't sin in the particular way Adam sinned? I understand as we read the context it is speaking of Adam's transgression and it bringing condemnation to all, to everyone.
