1 | Is sin inherited from father and mother? | Rom 5:19 | disciplerami | 76149 | ||
Not trying to pick a fight, just to get clarification. You wrote: "NO ONE is innocent or can escape from consequences of Adam's sin. This is WHY we need a Redeemer! All mankind is indeed dead spiritually to God until each individual is regenerated by the power of the Holy Spirit. How God imputs that redemption from the wages of sin is UP TO HIM. " Do you think no further clarification needs to be made for your statement here? You need some Scipture to back up your point here. You say no one can escape Adam's sin, that is why we need a redeemer, each one remains spiritually dead unless God regenerates by the Holy Spirit. Then you gloss over the obvious implication -- that most people are going to hell for Adam's sin and have no hope whatsoever -- by stating it is 'UP TO HIM.' That's my problem. The process you offer is deficient, in my opinion, as it necessarily makes the damnation of most people UP TO HIM also. Could you please clarify. Thanks and good day. |

2 | Is sin inherited from father and mother? | Rom 5:19 | Mommapbs | 76156 | ||
Disciplerami:please see my reply to you in post 76151 From this post, as I understand you, you are admitting to having a problem with God's sovereignty. This is indeed a sad place to be, for without it, there is little comfort or hope (at least for me!). Well, recognition of a problem is always a good starting point. . . Others on the Forum have shared similar perspectives, this is mine: The wages of sin is death. (Romans 6:23) All have sinned.(Romans 3:23) Therefore, everyone is in need of salvation from eternal separation from God . . . but then God's Word also says that there is a way that "seems right" to man . . . (Prov 14:12) As for me, I choose God's Way. Jesus said, "I am the way, the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father but through Me." John 14:6 God is sovereign. I feel badly that you are struggling with this. God knows who are His before birth (Jer 1:5)and all our days were pre-ordained.(Ps 139:16) He saves according to HIS MERCY, not on the basis of anything we have done or not done! (Ti 3:5) May God bless you and reveal Himself to you, mommapbs |

Dear mommapbs, Please don't feel badly for me. I'm quite content. I didn't say God isn't sovereign. I'm not sure how you could misunderstand what I said. I'll try communicating with someone esle because you completely missed my point. have a good day. |
