Bible Question:
Are we born a sinner? I firmly believe scripture Psalm 55 Romans 5 the foundation of OT and the new convenient JESUS basically the whole gospel TRUTH however lately someone I respect for their faith has shared that "yes, we can agree on this All emphasis on ALL have sinned but it's sin in the world that affects a newborn we become a sinner sometime after birth." I'll continue to pray and list scripture for my help and will not allow any divisive behavior to come between us I love this family - only desire to know how to respond in Christ's love to what I believe is deceit they may be trapped in ? Thank - you I'm seeking counsel from other believers too |
Bible Answer: Tracey, I would disagree with some of the answers given to you thus far. Let me quote Ephesians. Eph 2:3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. Now this passage says we were by nature children of wrath. The problem wasn't merely our actions, but that by our very nature we were something oppossed to God. Now my question would simply be: At what point did our very nature, and not merely our actions become this way? Think it through how you will, I would say birth. In Christ, Beja |
