Ro 5:19 "...by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous."
The "one" here refers to the Lord Jesus Christ. The "obedience" here refers to His submission to God the Father as the sacrifice for the sins of sinners.
Php 2:8 ... he humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
One Man's obedience, yet, the benefit of many. It was He who obeyed to pay the price, yet, it was the many who were constituted righteous in God's sight. The work of One resulted in the blessing of many.
If you ask the "many" here: "What good works did you do that you were justified in God's sight?"
They would reply: "We were not justified by our own works. It was He, the Lord Jesus Christ, who did that one work, that one act of sacrifice on the cross, and we are just the beneficiaries. It was His pain but our gain.
My friend, do you want to be part of the many who will benefit from Christ's work on the cross? Put your trust in Him and what He did on the cross and you will be justified.
