8 But aGod demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.  
9 Much more then, having now been justified aby His blood, we shall be saved bfrom wrath through Him.  
10 For aif when we were enemies bwe were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved cby His life.  
11 And not only that, but we also arejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.  

Death in Adam, Life in Christ

12 Therefore, just as athrough one man sin entered the world, and bdeath through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—  
13 (For until the law sin was in the world, but asin is not imputed when there is no law.  
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, awho is a type of Him who was to come.

Romans 5:10

We were reconciled to God (kathllaghmen tw qew). Second aorist passive indicative of katallassw for which great Pauline word see on II Corinthians 5:18 f. The condition is the first class. Paul does not conceive it as his or our task to reconcile God to us. God has attended to that himself (Romans 3:25 f.). We become reconciled to God by means of the death of God's Son. "Much more" again we shall be saved "by his life" (en th zwh autou). "In his life," for he does live, "ever living to intercede for them" (Hebrews 7:25).
