Grace must abound. Romans 5:20 says, "where sin abounded grace has more abounded." Grace always exceeds sin. Although sin is powerful, grace is more powerful. Grace is stronger than sin. We need to open ourselves to the grace and enlarge our capacity to receive grace upon grace. John 1:16 says, "of His fullness we all received, and grace upon grace." Christ is the source of grace, and Christ is grace itself. If we open our selves to Christ and receive "the abundance of grace," we shall be filled with life.

Reigning in Life through the Man Christ

As grace reigns unto life, so we who "receive the abundance of grace…shall reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ" (5:17). From the beginning of Romans through 5:11, there is little mention of life. Romans 5:10 says that we shall be saved in His life, and Romans 1:17 tells us that the just shall have life and live by faith. We find a strong word in Romans 5:17, telling us that we "shall reign in life." Hence, we can "walk in newness of life" (6:4). We reign in life and walk in newness of life because we have received the abundance of grace in Christ. Today through the man Jesus Christ, by the abundance

of His grace, we not only have eternal life, but we can reign over all things and all situations in this life and walk in its newness.
