Bible Question: how can a person be born into sin? |
Bible Answer: Dear Lee Lee, Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus! The sin of Adam, iniquity, is part of our nature. We are set free from this curse through the blood of Christ, cleansing us from that inborn sin. "For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead.
