  Sin came into the world - not true?

  by menrov in

  matt 5:27 “you have heard that it was said, ‘do not commit adultery.’ 28 but i say to you that whoever looks at a woman to desire her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.. this means that even before someone commits an act that is considered a sin or wrong but does think about it, that person actually already committed that sin or trespassing.. now read this:.

  rom.

  5:12 so then, just as sin entered the world through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all people because all sinned— 13 for before the law was given, sin was in the world, but there is no accounting for sin when there is no law.. this means that there was already sin in the world before adam and eve actually ate the fruit.

  Phizzy,

  Who believes God created anyone with original sin? Generally man gets all the blame 😁😁. Paul seems to be contend with blaming Adam for the introduction of sin into the world

  "my righteous servant will justify many" Isaiah 53:11.

  I think from a Bible fundamentalist perspective, we often fail to realize that the biblical revelation is progressive. Only a few lesser known belief systems take that into account (Bullingerism is one) while the Bible critic says well of course it is "progressive" 😁😁😁

  Waton,

  As Paul says, it is better to marry than burn with lust. I think many humans have experienced this. It can easily lead to more than acting against the obnoxious preaching of the preacher against fooling around with the cute girls; it can lead to broken relations, hurt people and sexually transmitted diseases. Most of us like Adam learn through errors. Of course the rulers want to motivate against certain behaviour like that of Paris and Prometheus, but in real life we sometines need to fall in order to know when we stand

  waton, there is a reason some Bible translations add "with passion". it is a Jewish idiom for lusting and all the classic hell fire believing commentaries interprets it thus, knowing the expression from Talmud and other jewish sources. They would have been more than happy to see a reference to the eternal fires in hell.

  I repeat the point that Augustine turned up the heat on sex, or down .

  Christianity has generally gone too far in its condemnation of sex. It goes back to Augustine. But Paul rightly says "Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion" (1 Cor. 7:8-9)

  It is a liberal marxist doctrine to attempt to turn the most rational and obvious concept in Christianity, the concept of sin, into nonsense. Adam errs because he is prone to erring. All human experience start out like Adams'.

  i found an article at zerohedge explaining how a state sponsored microchip will be redy for use in the spring for detecting corona virus infections before people feel symptoms.. the article expect that majority of the people will line up to take it.. i think this will become the mark of the beast revelation 13 speaks about.. hereis the article: .

  Jeffro, I think it is safe never to seperate human world powers with the satanic powers behind them. Compare to Ezekiel 28-29, Revelation 12 and the doctrine in Daniel 10:13

  Pistolpete, it is politically incorrect to say so today, but the great enemy of Jesus and the early Church in the time the new testament stories take place were the Jews. Then with Nero, the Romans gradually took over the persecution, Hadrian finally destroying jewish power in the ancient world

  Menrow, Adam and Eve is best understood to be representatives of mankind in covenant with God and experiencing the consequences of their sinful=errorbound ways through their actions and judgments of God. Adam and Eve had no idea what they were doing when they sinned but they surely learned
