Are you saying that babies come out of the womb with sin in their lives? Maybe the scripture is silent on the subject because it's common sense. Paul said, death spread to all men because ALL SINNED. You'll have to prove to me 1st that a 1 year old child can commit sin. Looking over those scriptures you quoted, I cannot find where men are born sinners, I see where death spread to all men BECAUSE ALL SINNED. Paul is very clear that "where there is no law, sin is not held against man." vs 13 As far as God making exceptions, He is no respecter of persons. Let me give you another veiw point to add to your 3 main views. Paul was refering to a time in his life when he was not spiritually separated from God. And when he understood the commandment, the nature of his flesh which was passed down from Adam arose and took advantage of the commandment and killed him. Thereby teaching him that he needed a savior. Paul says in Rom 2:14-15 that those without the law are a law unto themselves. And their consciences bear witness, accusing or excusing them. Babies must of necessity have clean consciences. Or they would go straight to hell. All men will sin (because of the nature passed down from Adam) and thereby need a savior. I'm not disagreeing with you on that. I think it is a bit much to appl Rom 5 and eph 2 to babies. This is a subject that i've heard quite a bit. In the seventies it was called the age of accountability. I haven't heard much about it since then. |

In the Andes, Hey bro, you wrote: "Paul was refering to a time in his life when he was not spiritually separated from God. And when he understood the commandment, the nature of his flesh which was passed down from Adam arose and took advantage of the commandment and killed him. Thereby teaching him that he needed a savior." You are saying that Paul is refering to a time in his life when we WAS NOT spiritually separated from God. This means that he was spiritually joined to God - 1 Cor 6:17 (you're either in or out, right?). What do you mean that his flesh arose and killed him? The scriptures make it clear that once we are in union with God, we have "ETERNAL LIFE". How can someone who has eternal (no beginning, no end) have that life killed or taken away? Could you clarify how someone who is spiritually alive could die (knowing that ALL our sins are forgiven under the New Covenant)? Respectfully, McGracer |
