Subject: Imputed sin |
Bible Note: Hello John The scriptural support given is Romans 5:12-14. Since this passage is speaking of physical death as coming from Adam and that sin was not accounted before the Law, there was of necessity some sense of sin being transfered from Adam to the rest of mankind. Imputed sin is thus distinguished from inherited sin (our sin nature) by which we suffer spiritual death. Steve |
