Rom 5:19For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by one man’s obedience many will be made righteous. 1 Cor 15:21For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.

  10. 1) Jn 14:9,10Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
