"Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous."
It is NOT God who sends people to Hell. It was Adam's single transgression which sent ALL of mankind to Hell, and God, who by grace, chose according to the good pleasure of His will, to bestow upon an elect people the free gift of eternal life. Thus likewise, by one is the free gift given, although with opposite affect, saving ALL His chosen people from this judgement.
For the judgment was by one to condemnation
