Is the one your'e thinking of perhaps Romans 5:17-19?
"17 For if by the trespass of the one [man] death ruled as king through that one, much more will those who receive the abundance of the undeserved kindness and of the free gift of righteousness rule as kings in life through the one [person], Jesus Christ.
18 So, then, as through one trespass the result to men of all sorts was condemnation, likewise also through one act of justification the result to men of all sorts is a declaring of them righteous for life. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were constituted sinners, likewise also through the obedience of the one [person] many will be constituted righteous.

Romans 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
Romans 10:6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

Romans 5's one man vs one man comparison:
by one man: sin & death upon many(deceived)
by one man: righteousness & life unto many
1Cor 15's Adam vs Christ:
as in (1st & last) Adam all die
even so in Christ shall all live
"Christ": is the end of the law: Rom 10:4
"Christ": is Saviour of the world: John 4:42
To wit: that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

1 Corinthians 1:30
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Philippians 3:9
And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

I am not sure how to answer you but in Abraham's time, the Bible tells us that Abraham believed God and God counted it to him as righteousness. In Matthew 6;vs. 21 we are told to seek first the Kingdom of GOD and HIS righteousness. In II Corinthians 5;21- GOD made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of GOD.

Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

It makes sense to me- Hovind (aka Dino) is the embodiment of all that is rotten about conservative Christianity. Hopefully the 30 years he'll be spending in jail will give him time to reflect on his wickedness and gain some spiritual awareness.

The Bible is God's word. Read it some time, maybe you won't rot in hell.

The bible is just a book of parables, it means nothing since it was written by man, and nothing can be proven. But, it is a good science fiction book.
