It says: Romans 5:12 (12) Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: He plainly says that sin entered this world by one man, Adam. When he says, "for that all have sinned," he is giving evidence for how we know that sin is inherited from Adam. The fact that everyone sins is very strong evidence that we have all inherited a nature bent on sinning. Read four verses later, and you see how he says, "For if by one man's offence death reigned by one..." This indicates death being something we inherited from Adam. Romans 5:17 (17) For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Two verses later, he says again, "by one man's disobedience many were made sinners..." Romans 5:19 (19) For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Therefore, we inherited both death and sin from the first man Adam.
