How can that be if we are justified by faith? (Romans 5:1) and not all men have faith. You need to properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching your conclusion on doctrine. Would like to discuss this further, but I have to get ready for work.
Wow, you deny the resurrection.
The natural man, void of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, (1 Cir 2:14) does not have spiritual faith, spiritual faith is a fruit of the Spirit and is not discerned by the natural man until he is born again and already has the promise of eternal life.
If you think that you are interpreting Rom 5:18 right, then you think that all mankind has been justified of eternal life. I don't think that will harmonize with the other scriptures. John 6:38 plainly states that Christ died only for those that his Father gave him and not all mankind.
At first glance this verse may appear to suggest that all men will be justified (accounted as righteous) but the context of Romans and the NT clearly indicates the reference is all men who are justified by faith in Christ alone alone. Paul is not teaching universalism or that all men will be justified (saved) which is clearly not in harmony with the rest of the book of Romans. Christ’s sacrifice paid for the sins of the whole world, but that does not mean that the whole world will be saved. (Acts 10:43; 13:39)
If by "all men" you mean all mankind, then that will not harmonize with John 6:38 where it plainly states that Christ die only for those that God gave him, and not for all mankind, so the only ones that Christ gave justification of life to were the ones that God gave him and not all mankind. Could you be interpreting Rom 5:18 wrong, and it actually means "all of those that Christ died for, which were only those that God gave him? That is the only way that those two scriptures will harmonize.
Amen and well said! I will be sure to point that out to Noose. He reads the second part of Romans 5:18 as if it's just a reverse of the first part without making the distinction of "in Adam" and "in Christ." He is simply fixated on the word ALL.
Romans 5:16 And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification. 17 For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. 18 Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.
You are reading everything with universalism and type 2 works salvation lenses when it is not there. I understand about Adam's disobedience bringing condemnation to everyone. Romans 5:12 - Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned. I also understand that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) and that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23). The gift of eternal life is not automatically given to all men apart from faith in Christ, as you erroneously teach.
Yes.
Yes, ALL men in Adam.
Except that it's ALL men in Christ.
That statement is the epitome of IRONY.
So which false religion or cult are you mixed up in? You are thoroughly deceived. 
Jesus died for the sins of the world and His sacrifice atones for the sins of the world, yet that does not mean the whole world is automatically saved. The result was justification and life for (believers) those who are in Christ (Romans 5:17) and not automatically for everyone. (Acts 13:39; Romans 3:26; 5:1; 6:23; 8:1 etc..)
Back at you. So which church are you affiliated with? Are you ashamed to tell me?
