Was Jesus’ death alone substitutionary for sinners or was His perfect obedience to the Law (also referred to as Christ's active obedience) substitutionary as well? While this paper looks at the two representative men, Adam and Christ, in Romans 5:12–21, it will specifically focus in on verse 18 where Christ’s one act of righteousness results in justification of life to all men. The deciding issue is a matter of hermeneutics. It is the purpose of this paper to demonstrate that strict adherence to the literal Historical Grammatical-Hermeneutic will only render a meaning of substitutionary death.

The purpose of this research paper is to show that literal hermeneutics and inerrancy have an inseparable relationship by demonstrating that while inerrancy is not a hermeneutical tool, sound hermeneutics cannot exist without it. Inerrancy will be shown as the source upon which literal hermeneutics exist as it alone determines the entire structure of hermeneutics leading to exegesis. To accomplish this, the doctrine of inspiration will be looked at together with the doctrine of inerrancy, which naturally demonstrates that God’s inspired words must be understood in a literal, normal way as language is commonly interpreted and understood.

If it is possible for a person’s good works to make them acceptable to God and therefore justifiably forgiven in God’s sight, why then did God send His Son Jesus into the world to put Him to death, even to death on a cross (Acts 5:30)?
Research Interests:
The question, “Is Jesus a man, God, or both?” is the most important question anyone can look to answer in this life because to answer it wrongly results in an eternity separated from God.
Research Interests:
Who is right, Wallace or Campbell, as to whether remoteness is a better explanation of Greek verbs than time?”

The purpose of this research paper is not to address the application of Thirtle’s Theory over and against the Psalter which amounts to affording credibility to its conclusions before the actual theory is verified. Rather, the purpose is to focus directly on the presuppositions and the premise of the theory to demonstrate that the theory itself lacks sound argumentation as well as any paleographical evidence whatsoever to make it credible.
