Because God's free gift is not like Adam's sin. The sin of Adam is not contrasted here to the obedience of Christ; but the penalty of Adam's sin is contrasted with the free gift of grace through Christ's obedience. Many men died. The penalty of physical death came to all because of Adam's sin. But God's grace is much greater. In Christ we receive back much more than we lost in Adam. God's ACT in Christ will bring all out of the grave. To those who are in Christ, this ACT will bring much more!!!
