To explain how Christ justified all people by His death, the apostle Paul used a comparison between Adam and Christ.
The following points of comparison are made: what one man did; how that one act, by one man, affects the many, and the consequences of the one act of each man.

The result of Christ’s one act of obedience was the free gift of justification being provided by all. His death alone saves no one, but His death made the provision for the salvation of everyone. However, that provision must be received by each individual personally placing their faith being in Christ alone to be saved.
