As for inheritting the sin in christianity and my ignoring Paul's words doesn't exist. The passages he wrote needs to be read carefully:
12Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned--13for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law Romans 5: 12-13
This is not saying we inherited Adam's sin. It says we have our own sin. Sin is like a cancer that spreads. It is like someone having a sickness that someone gets. God made life that way. Have you ever caught someone else's cold?
Peace
Again the rules of the blog are clear you are not allowed to divert from the topic and bring up multiple topics in one response
This section is what actually has a response
First you said :
Yes, it does appear that Eve received most of the blame to me as well
And thats my point
Then you said :
This is not saying we inherited Adam's sin. It says we have our own sin
So sin is not inheritted
Then you say this :
Sin is like a cancer that spreads
Ok so it spreads as Paul said and as have I said
Then you clarify more by contradicting your first statement :
It is like someone having a sickness that someone gets. God made life that way. Have you ever caught someone else's cold?
So it is spread to us and we caught it from someone else (our father Adam according to paul) !!!
we caught something from our father and it spreads throughout generations = inheritting something from our father
IT IS THE SAME DEFINITION
Two statements which contradict each other :
1.This is not saying we inherited Adam's sin. It says we have our own sin
2.Sin is like a cancer that spreads. It is like someone having a sickness that someone gets. God made life that way
So How in the world do we have our own sins if the orginal sin spreads from one generation to another ????
