1 | w/o the Law would man be concious of sin | Rom 3:20 | Empty_Me | 130204 | ||
Romans 3:20 states "no one will be decalared righteous in His (God's) sight by observing the law, rather, through the law we become conscious of sin." Does that mean that without the law (i.e. 10 commandments) all of mankind would be unaware of his sin? beacuse I've noted christains often use the arguement,"how do you know the differnce between right and wrong", alluding to the fact that if we evolved no such thing would exist. i've always kind of understood it to be that the spirit convicts people....but then in romans it says that man wouldn't be aware of his sin if it weren't for the law. | ||||||
2 | w/o the Law would man be concious of sin | Rom 3:20 | Country Girl | 130208 | ||
I'm no expert in this matter but we do know that mankind lived for a long time without a specific code of written law from God or anyone else for quite some time, at least from Adam to Noah's time. God felt they had violated His laws sufficiently enough that the "whole world was thinking of evil continuously" and destroyed that world with the flood. Apparently, our conscience has some basic rudamentary principles of right and wrong by which people will be judged IF they know absolutely nothing about the Bible, God or Jesus. Rom 2:12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law Blessings to you. Country Girl |
