Does the Bible teach Original Sin?

There are many which fall in that slippery slope

 

1689 cof
Chapter 6: Of the Fall of Man, Of Sin, And of the Punishment Thereof
1._____ Although God created man upright and perfect, and gave him a righteous law, which had been unto life had he kept it, and threatened death upon the breach thereof, yet he did not long abide in this honour; Satan using the subtlety of the serpent to subdue Eve, then by her seducing Adam, who, without any compulsion, did willfully transgress the law of their creation, and the command given unto them, in eating the forbidden fruit, which God was pleased, according to his wise and holy counsel to permit, having purposed to order it to his own glory.
( Genesis 2:16, 17; Genesis 3:12,13; 2 Corinthians 11:3 )
2._____ Our first parents, by this sin, fell from their original righteousness and communion with God, and we in them whereby death came upon all: all becoming dead in sin, and wholly defiled in all the faculties and parts of soul and body.
( Romans 3:23; Romans 5:12, etc; Titus 1:15; Genesis 6:5; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3:10-19 )

3._____ They being the root, and by God's appointment, standing in the room and stead of all mankind, the guilt of the sin was imputed, and corrupted nature conveyed, to all their posterity descending from them by ordinary generation, being now conceived in sin, and by nature children of wrath, the servants of sin, the subjects of death, and all other miseries, spiritual, temporal, and eternal, unless the Lord Jesus set them free.
( Romans 5:12-19; 1 Corinthians 15:21, 22, 45, 49; Psalms 51:5; Job 14:4; Ephesians 2:3; Romans 6:20 Romans 5:12; Hebrews 2:14, 15; 1 Thessalonians 1:10 )

4._____ From this original corruption, whereby we are utterly indisposed, disabled, and made opposite to all good, and wholly inclined to all evil, do proceed all actual transgressions.
( Romans 8:7; Colossians 1:21; James 1:14, 15; Matthew 15:19 )

5._____ The corruption of nature, during this life, doth remain in those that are regenerated; and although it be through Christ pardoned and mortified, yet both itself, and the first motions thereof, are truly and properly sin.
( Romans 7:18,23; Ecclesiastes 7:20; 1 John 1:8; Romans 7:23-25; Galatians 5:17 )

 

Rom3;23
23 for all did sin, and are come short of the glory of God --

All sinned at one point in time...The Fall....case closed

 

Here it is once again, for all who do not take theology from Finney;
preceptaustin;

To sin is to act contrary to the will and law of God. Everybody is born into Adam and thus all sinned for when he sinned, for he acted as the representative for all his descendants. Men are not only sinners by nature, but are also sinners by practice and thus continually fall short (see below), in committing sin themselves. Thus there is a universal need for the gospel, which is thankfully mercifully universally available!

The aorist tense here is referred to as "timeless aorist" which gathers up the whole human race for all time into this condemnation (see also A T Robertson). There are no exceptions save Christ Jesus as Paul has made clear in the preceding indictment in (Ro 1:18-3:20)

Godet agrees writing that the aorist tense "transports us to the point of time when the result of human life appears as a completed fact, the hour of judgment."

MacDonald writes that the aorist tense pictures the fact that "Everybody sinned in Adam; when he sinned, he acted as the representative for all his descendants. But men are not only sinners by nature; they are also sinners by practice.

Leon Morris - The aorist pictures this as past, but also as a completion. It certainly does not mean that sin belongs wholly in the past, for Paul goes on to a present tense when he says fall short of the glory of God. Elsewhere in Romans the glory is often future (Ro 2:7, 10; 5:2; 8:18, 21). But there is also a present glory, for God “made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ” (2 Cor. 4:6; cf. 2 Cor. 3:18; John 17:22). But this is something Christ produces in believers. Sinners fall short of it. Not only did all sin in the past, but they continually come short of God’s glory. (Ibid)

Vincent writes that the aorist tense means "looking back to a thing definitely past — the historic occurrence of sin."

Remember that men and women sin because we are sinners by nature. A plum tree bears plums because it is a plum tree. The fruit is the result of its nature. Sin is the fruit of a sinful heart. “The heart is deceitful above all things” (Jer 17:9).

 

Modern day Calvinists spot someone with an agenda-
John Calvin: Not a Calvinist

Molinism: The Bridge Between Calvinism & Arminianism

Free Will is Taught in the Bible...

Jeremiah 18: Romans 9 De-Calvinized

A person does not just randomly do this. You had a plan and we have caught on to it.
Error and truth have no middle ground.

 

Original Sin means you cannot go one day without thinking, imagining, or acting out sin. If your will is free, stop doing these things.

 

The Bible depicts it as original sin. The reason babies die in the womb etc.

 

There is no transgression where there is no Law. Babies would not understand the Law if they had it. They can't read or understand language. Do you really think God would punish anyone who can't help them selves.. If so maybe you need to see a head doctor.

Prove your theory of my being responsible for Adam's sin. Prove it with scripture. If you could you would have already done so Original sin is not biblical. It is a concept conceived by some Catholic priest a long time ago and it is a lie.

Election is not Salvation and there is not even one Gentile in scripture that was elect by God.. Election for Gentiles is an attempt to replace the Jew. No where is a Gentile ever elected in scripture. It is a figment of there imagination just like the rest of there deception



Since the Biblical God is a God of justice, this is why Calvinism can't be true, even though we should be tolerant of our fellow Calvinists as our brothers in Christ.[/QUOTE]
I grant them the same tolerance they give me. Some times the truth hurts.

True I am aware of who wrote it. Calvin promoted it while seeking to become the Pope of Geneva. I've read some of the history of Calvin.

they are still sinners, its just that the Lord has not yet made a final judgement against them! Babies are not born in a state of innocence, as still born into Adam and still sinners!
