Subject: Is sin inherited from father and mother? |
Bible Note: John, You are reading the same verse I read but you spin the verse and do not accurately interpret it. "So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men." The question is HOW do the acts of Adam and Jesus result in condemnation or justification? I propose that the same way that Jesus' action results in justification, that Adam's results in condemnation. All men are not made right through the work of Jesus Christ unless they 'follow' Him. Jesus paved the way, the author and perfector or the faith, and it is each man's responsibility to take hold of the gift. The righteousness of Christ is not received without repentance and confession. Likewise, Adam's act is not automatically transferred to all men unless or until all men do what Adam did. You are IGNORING Romans 5:12, "And death spread to all men, because all sinned"!!! Now that is book, chapter, and verse. Paul tells how Adam's act leads to the condemnation of all. Good day. |
