Subject: Is sin inherited from father and mother? |
Bible Note: Greetings disciplerami. Please don't try to pick a fight with me on doctrinal issues; I am not a Calvinst. What is this doctrine of depravity? Why put an descriptive word in place of a thing (sin)? The "doctrine" of original sin is nothing more that the account of the Fall of man in the Garden of Eden. Sin had to start somewhewre and it began with Adam. God's Word (Romans 5:19) declares that this is indeed its genesis point. I believe that because of Adam's sin, that state of spiritual deadness has been transmitted to every generation of mankind. ALL are born into this world in need of a Redeemer. All, regardless of age, in the womb or out, possess a sin nature. 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. Please bear in mind that God has declared, "I WILL HAVE MERCY ON WHOM I HAVE MERCY, AND I WILL HAVE COMPASSION ON WHOM I HAVE COMPASSION." Romans 9:15. True or False: The Truth and sovereignty of God is not dependent upon what I believe to be true about Him. Blessings on your day - may He be merciful, gracious and compassionate to all of us! mommapbs |
