How and Why did All Naturally Born Human Beings become Corrupted, Depraved and Dominated by sin?

[Alan Dale Gross]

I wish it was easier to find a place where the salvation message was foremost

First, I believe we need to consider How and Why All Naturally Born Human Beings became Corrupted, Depraved and Dominated by sin?

In other words, why would someone's soul ever need to be Saved, or need a Savior?

IMHO, besides the Goodness of God, in His Ultimate Sovereignty, under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, the starting point for finding common ground with someone regarding their Doctrinal Stance would have to do with the position they take on what and who 'a sinner' is; in other words, that they were Saved as a Totally Depraved soul, like where Jesus said He Came "to Seek and to Save that which is lost," Luke 19:10.

If it is True that we all became Naturally Born sinners, as the result of our most distant common ancestor, Adam, Falling into a State of sin in the Garden of Eden, what does that mean for us to now be said to also be 'sinners'?

How would we be doing concerning our 'fellowship', so far?

Have we got a Biblical understanding of what a 'sinner' is?

We Accuse and Indict God for being hatful and cruel for having Mercy on who He will have Mercy and view His Sovereignty in Election with Abhorrence and Indignation, and judge God for being unfair, but is that a reflection of a soul that has been Shown their True sinful condition before God, who has Eternally Offended His Holiness, or does it sound like they had been Granted Repentance Toward God in a genuine Salvation Experience?

There seems to be a gravely serious inconsistency there.

The First thing to Ask is the Question:

"How and Why did all Naturally Born Human Beings become Corrupted, Depraved and Dominated by sin?"

Answer:

"Back in the days of the first Human Being, our Human Father Adam, God Created for him a body out of the dust (Gen. 2:7; I Cor. 15:44–46);

"God Gave Adam a Helpmate that was Created out of his body, whom he called Eve (Gen. 2:21–23).

"Before Eve was Created, God had already Commanded Adam not to eat the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, because in the Day you eat the forbidden fruit, you shall surely die (Gen. 2:16–17).

"Although Eve knew about the forbidden fruit, perhaps through Adam, she was beguiled and fell victim to the shrewdness of Satan. Adam, after he saw Eve holding the forbidden fruit, knowing Eve had eaten it and disobeyed God’s Commandment, exercised his undefiled Freewill and did eat the fruit. He chose to disobey his Creator rather than lose a beautiful wife like Eve.

"When Adam and Eve ate the fruit that God Forbade them from eating, they actually experienced death on the Day they ate the fruit. It was not by the substance of the fruit that they died and Fell into sin, but because of their disobedience to God, death came upon them—not the physical death that they had experienced at that time but Spiritual Death—and Adam lived 930 years physically after he did eat the fruit (Gen. 5:1).

"In the Bible, Death means Separation; like in Physical Death, when the body and the spirit are separated (Jas. 2:26),

"in Spiritual Death, as experienced by our First Parents, they become separated from the Holiness of God because of sin (Isa. 59:2; Eph. 2:1),

"and they Fall Short of the Glory of God (Rom. 3:23), thus we are all by Nature children of Wrath even as others (Eph. 2:3).

"Adam, the First Human, did not lose his Freedom of Will after his Fall into sin, but the Freedom he possessed could not extend anymore to Spiritual Life, Spiritual Apprehension, Spiritual Knowledge, and Spiritual emotion. He loses the Spiritual Ability and Connection to God whereby Adam is Free to Will only to fulfill the desires of his sinful and fleshly Fallen Condition;

Adam became a slave to sin (Jn. 8:34; Rom. 6:20; 2 Peter 2:19),

"which made him not to seek God but instead decide by his own Will to hide and cover his sins (Gen. 3:8; Job 31:33; Rom. 3:10–11).

"After his Fall into sin, Adam eventually exercised his Will to dress himself in the Presence of God, but it did not meet the Standard Required by God, so it was needed that God Clothed him (Gen. 3:21).

"As far as the Bible is concerned, cloth symbolizes two kinds of Righteousness:
1) man’s righteousness, as we see in Isa. 64:6; "But we are all as an unclean thing,
and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf;
and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.)
and 2) the Righteousness of God (Rev. 19:8; Rom. 8:33; 2 Cor. 5:21).

"The consequence of Adam’s disobedience was death, and as Adam was the First Human being Created directly by God, he Represents the entire Human Race, thereby putting all his Descendants Physically and Spiritually to Death (Rom. 5:12, 17–19).

"Every Human Being Born Naturally in this world Inherits the Corrupt, Depraved, and Dominant sinful fleshly Nature of Adam (Psa. 51:5; Isa. 48:8; Gen. 8:21; Job 14:4)."
